COVER REVEAL: Five years ago, when I started my first nonfiction book, I couldn't imagine how it would look. This summer, my editor surprised me by pulling this image and title out of the text, and now this thing I worked so hard on is real. 😭 Out May 9, 2023. (Preorder below)

At @PeriplusCollect, we don't receive or spend money — we're all writers volunteering to mentor emerging writers of color. This year, we really want more applicants with little or no prior access to writing resources or community. But we need help! (1/x)

I’ve got a new (old) story out in the Lost Journals issue of @westwinducla! I wrote “Baby Jesus” during a time when I was struggling to define what family meant to me. Really grateful to the westwind team for putting this issue out! westwinducla.com/_files/ugd/…
