Hail and well met, strangers and friends! I write about books (and occasionally other things) for money. Patreon is where I talk about nonfiction, mostly, with the occasional fiction review: the book reviews are mirrored at my newsletter.

My writing here is usually free to read, but I'm able to write these reviews and make them available because patrons and subscribers pay for them. If you value this work, a little patronage goes a long way!

I write regular reviews for Locus magazine and Tor.com, and for a while I wrote a weekly Tor.com column, Sleeps With Monsters. (That's been on hiatus since I became a parent.) My work has also appeared in Vector, The Cascadia Subduction Zone, Strange Horizons, and the-now-sadly-retired Ideomancer.com.

Once upon a time, I offered more tangible rewards than my thanks. Then I realised I was too disorganised to keep that up. And then I became a parent.

If you enjoy my work, a collection of my fiction reviews and commentary, Sleeping With Monsters, is available from:
