My debut novella, The Bruising of Qilwa (Tachyon Publications), was a finalist for the Crawford, Locus, and World Fantasy awards, and introduces my queernormative, Persian-inspired world. My debut middle grade horror The Glade (Aladdin) comes out Summer 2025 and follows an Iranian American tween who discovers a place in her woodsy summer camp where dreams—and nightmares—come to life. Twice a month, I send out a newsletter as part of my Tuesday Telegrams. One issue is a personal essay; the other, writing updates, advice, or craft talk.
