An important announcement regarding Lost Cargo:

Last call for those who wanted to read my science fiction novella.

Since 2022, Lost Cargo has been published through Mocha Memoirs Press, an indie publisher that aims to highlight the work of underrepresented and marginalized authors, many of whom are award winners and finalists. (Check out the great work they’re doing here)
 
I’m grateful to have had the opportunity to work with the great people at MMP, and sincerely thank them for believing in my book and helping me bring it to readers in the form I hoped for. The book has been consistently well-received by readers and was even listed among the best novellas of 2022 in Year’s Best Canadian Fantasy & Science Fiction, Vol. 1, which pleases me to no end.
 
This all said, there are many avenues through which authors can make their stories available to readers and it was therefore mutually agreed upon from the start that my partnership with MMP would be limited to two years. That agreement comes to a close on September 12, at which point Lost Cargo will go—at least temporarily—out of print.
 
With that in mind, I wanted to give the many readers who have added Lost Cargo to their TBR lists a heads up to give them an opportunity to buy a copy of the book before it’s gone. Below you’ll find links to the several places from which you can buy this book, including the Mocha Memoirs Press website. 

If you’re a new subscriber or new to my fiction, I’m a Latine author based in Canada who writes science fiction, fantasy and horror. Lost Cargo is science fiction that includes some darker elements. My fiction has been published, or is forthcoming, in over forty magazines and anthologies, including some of the top publications in the field. It’s also been included in three “Best of” anthologies, most recently, The Best American Science Fiction and Fantasy 2024. I’ve been a finalist for the Nebula and Aurora awards, was longlisted for the 2023 BSFA Awards, and won Canada’s 2022 Short Works Prize.
 
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has read, reviewed, and otherwise helped spread the word about Lost Cargo over the past two years. Your kind words about this story have touched me more than I’m able to convey. I hope this book will again find readers in a future to come, but until then, I’m grateful to all those it has already found, especially those of you who in some way let me know you enjoyed it. It’s been a privilege to share this story with you.
