Get something nice for doing things for various flavors of good causes.

Listen, the world sucks right now. It sucks a lot! But there's also a lot of good and people doing good. If you are out there doing good, I would like to do something for you. It's apparently been like six years since I've managed to put one of these together but here we go:

If you have made a financial contribution to a good cause* between the beginning of 2026 and now, the moment you are reading this, or any point during 2026 thereafter**, I'd like to do something for you.

However, I am fully aware that not everyone can do financial contributions. So if you have volunteered, signed petitions, contacted your representatives***, protested, trained, networked, etc., I would also like to do something for you.


I might do something like this as well, though I'll probably only do it for original fic right now. I'm still trying to sort through fandom stuff. But it would be nice to give people things to give them a smile, and I already do this kind of thing on Bluesky most months, so why not here too?

I mentioned a couple of posts ago that I got a couple of things published last year. I thought I'd link them here on the off chance you're curious.

Linger Just A Little - 100-Foot Crow
Thisis a drabble I wrote in October for the theme of haunt'. It felt really good to have this one be in the world because I had a bit of a hard go this last quarter of the year, and this was a little boost when I needed it.

This is also free to read.

Ripped At The Seams - meat4meat
This was a story I wrote in January and had initially gotten rejected, but when the anthology went better than expected, they reached out to me and bought the story. This is an angry little story about being forced to be in a body that shouldn't be lived in, and the things we do to fight against those who make us exist that way.

The overall theme of the anthology was body horror written by trans and disabled authors, so you can kinda get the idea of what you'll find here. You can't read this one for free, but the anthology is linked, and if you're really curious, I'll send you a file of just my story.
