Epilogues and Other Disasters

Novella manuscript, accepted to the 2023 Under the Volcano fiction workshop in Tepoztlán, Mexico, under the tutelage of Sheree Renée Thomas.

Adi Clark was a dimension-hopping teenage hero, but her climactic universe-saving battle was over and done with years ago. Now she’s facing down the rest of her life as an adult, and quickly losing her grip on her own plot. As Adi begins to fray at the seams, the world she fought to save and the new generation of heroes born to take her place hang in the balance. Epilogues and Other Disasters is for fans of Everything, Everywhere, All at Once, The Ten Thousand Doors of January, The Space Between Worlds, We Could Be Heroes, and anyone who’s wondered how exactly all those YA protagonists got from the final chapter to their soft epilogue.
