I'm excited to share with you that my full length poetry manuscript which I've been working on for two years now [which I still feel is not good enough] has made the longlist of the 2026 YesYes Books Prize. This is a win and validation to me that I so needed. Celebrate with me.

In conversation with Isaiah Adepoju on 20.35 Africa, we went behind the scenes of my chapbook, The Smell of Absence (Akashic Books, 2025) and my full-length collection, All That Refuses to Die (University of Nebraska Press, 2026).
