After three years of writing fiction about what tenderness means within a family and a larger community, I’m honored that my short story collection, Ajebutter Women, has found a home @RegalHouse1 I hope everyone looks out for the book when it's released in 2027!

Very honored and excited.

Random reflections from working on an anthology: 1) You’re part of a diverse team of readers all with different preferences, 2) Sometimes you’re late and feel bad! 3) You worry about getting it wrong and sometimes you do 4) You’re very humbled by the talent, that’s the best part

I’ve been thinking a lot about the role of kindness—who gets it, who doesn’t, and why. https://t.co/IQs6IPfwqw

There’s a lot happening in the world. But yesterday we finally signed a contract for a DC-area authors book vending machine space in Western Market, 2000 Pennsylvania Ave NW, coming later this year!
