New story! This Will Not Happen to You is out in Uncanny's Disabled People Destroy Science Fiction issue. I'm very happy to be ripping the fabric of spacetime with these fine people.

So happy, in fact, that I also have an interview and an essay, Malfunctioning Space Stations, in the same issue. The latter is a reprint from the Kickstarter for this issue, so it may be familiar to some of you. Still, I'm glad to see it out there again.

I love how many ways this story resonates, and its brutal truth about the initial users of any assistive tech.

Thank you so much.
