My wife and I started up a small press! We're focusing on hopepunk novellas for adults, and today I've written a bit about how and why we're doing that.

Come see me in Pittsburgh, selling my #solarpunk books, teaching hopeful visioning & talking about the genre. I'll be at several in-person events soon but also hosting an online bookclub next week!

#introduction
Mastodon is my digital hygiene compromise, I'm still spending too much time online but now #bloomscrolling instead of doomscrolling. #mosstodon changed for ever the way I'm hiking.
I try to be deliberate in boosting beauty, from #pottery to #squirrel to #hopepunk because I believe we as a species cannot function on anger and fear alone.
Also #RightToRepair #TransRightsAreHumanRights #FightForLibraries #SmashPatriarchy and many more.
One day I'll manage a #MardiPatisserie !
If super-bullies conquer the headlines with absurd crap, imagine a world without bullies in power.
It's on us to counter their #narratives with how we would like the future to be. It is up to all of us to fight for this future. Not tomorrow but now!
Write *your* plot of humanity and cooperation.

I was angry. I was in love with #penguins, and with #solarpunk, and #hopepunk. Therefore I decided: If the #evil makes #RealityGetsCrazy - everything is possible. Even the good. Let's imagine what *we* want and fight for our dreams! https://steadyhq.com/en/naturematchcuts/posts/fbdd3658-8415-466b-98d8-100a923820a0

I made a zine about why we lift up hopeful climate fiction stories on the Bright Green Futures podcast! (plus my prior one about solarpunk)
You can download/print/share them (plus I have a handy video on the trick of folding them): https://brightgreenfutures.substack.com/p/bgf-anthology-and-zines
Ep of the pod about how the resurgence of zines is an indicator of cultural change: https://brightgreenfutures.substack.com/p/episode-27-zines-cultural-change
A little #bookpromo for my first novel:
An inventor running for his life teams up w/a pair of broken heroes to fight injustice in a post-revolution world.
NOT a dystopia. More like hopepunk mystery romantic suspense.
Disability rep, chronic pain rep, found family vibes
Must say there is something beautiful and healing about seeing a bunch of strangers in a #repairCafe helping each other fix their rice cookers, format their laptops, sew their teddy bears, patch up their clothes, figure out ways to solve problems with what they've got right there and each other.
Highly recommended activity to restore faith in ordinary people when we see so much cruelty from the top.
NEW episode of the #podcast wherein I talk about some fun zines I've made (which you can download), how FLOW is a breakout #solarpunk film, and how cultural change flies under the radar long before it changes the world.

But also: I make a Tiktok

in #SpoonieTown, the abbreviated terms "Lo-Mo" and "Lo-Fo" are understood to mean "low motivation" and "low focus" and describe those particular challenges a person can struggle with in their day to day. so, when someone says they are having a lomo kind of day, everyone gets exactly how that person is feeling and can instantly relate.
Ok folks! #hopePunk weekend challenge!
Take some time to ponder, and add your own toots to two of my favourite visioning projects:
#spoonieTown an imaginary place where we've already solved all the problems - what's life like there? What's kind of infrastructure is used? How do we take care of each other? What's a day like?
#tonicMasculinity - share your favourite examples from pop culture, your real life moments, or men you admire and why. There's so much good to celebrate. 
#spoonieTown has lots of back yards and driveways for our more nomadic byoh (bring your own housing - van/RV, portable pods, summer camping...) denizens to settle in and stay a while before they move on.
Ooo and lil nodes of tiny homes with a central shared space for gatherings and meals.
Versatile, flexible and fun.

@toddmedema Cyberus only publishes brazilian short stories from indie authors, same to this anthology of inverted solarpunk.
But I'm curious. Does megacorporation in your story use green energy or green discourse to manipulate/pursue some people? Or shows a point of view from someone negatively affected by green discouses? If so, I think it is inverted solarpunk, but it's new born genre, I can't say much about that...
"the greatest lie they sold us is that nothing we do matters. but history is made of small acts stacking up until they tip the scales. every revolution, every movement, every change started with ordinary people refusing to accept injustice. when it feels overwhelming, shrink the problem. plant a tree, protect a creek, help a neighbor. small things, together, become unstoppable."
