I'm looking for eco-fiction/solarpunk novels/poetry/short stories

Examples I can think of at the moment: A Psalm for the Wild Built (Becky Chambers), Parable of the Sower (Octavia Butler), The Road (Cormac McCarthy), and Nineveh (Henrietta Rose Innes).

Creepy, cozy, cryptid fantasy with an ecological point of view. Publishers Weekly calls Strange Animals "a wholly captivating tale of magic and nature."

okay okay OKAY

I wrote a book about what it feels like to try to get an agent to notice your novel

and what it feels like to start doing activism and find friends who share your values but also lose friends who don't

it's written in the form of unhinged query letters

and then somehow rysz merey wanted to publish it with the tRaum books press for queer agenre books

and rachel a rosen designed me one of the greatest covers of all time, with blackout poetry:

and then rysz was like, did you want an even less hinged cover for the special edition since it won't be censored by amazon and rachel was like, i can do fewer hinges, and this happened:

[tumblr won't let me blaze this post with the special edition cover so um if you want to see it you need to click the link here, do it, I promise it's worth it, this is Art, maybe not safe for work tho, don't click it at work]

if you enjoy print books or capitalism, click here to buy it, the indie links have the special cover

Imber is a B.R.A.G. Medallion honoree!🏅

This award from indieBRAG recognizes independently published books that excel in storytelling, writing quality, and overall reader experience. Only about 1 in 4 submissions receive this honor, so I’m especially grateful.

If you enjoy eco-dystopian sci-fi, atmospheric thrillers, or high-stakes survival stories, Imber blends all three.

The Tachytelozoic Era is an age of constant change. New species appear every day. Advanced biotechnology, floral telecommunication and fungal computing and algal engineering, is everywhere. The country of Kenor, where it all began, is now home to the Verdantland - a brand-new rainforest full of altered plants and animals. Taryn Viato, a biology student at Kenor's most famous university, has been entrusted with an important task over her summer break. Acacia, the city's resident celebrity-turned-recluse (who also happens to be biologically immortal), has asked her to find the reason why his radio-lilies have been wilting. As she investigates, her own life starts changing faster than the organisms around her. An expedition to an ancient ruin site, a brush with the growing anti-Verdantland movement, and a spark of new romance all await. The mystery of the wilting lilies may not be the only one Taryn solves this lively summer. Nor do the problems she has to solve remain so small-scale. As the current of transformation rushes ever onwards, sweeping her to shores beyond her imagining, she is made to reckon with the natures of change and changelessness themselves.
