My first book, NO OFFENSE: A MEMOIR IN ESSAYS, will be published with ELJ Editions (@EmergeJournal) in 2025! It blends personal essay and cultural critique to explore the impact of microaggressions against queer and trans folks and I can’t wait to share it with the world!

Very excited to have an essay published in The Queer Love Project! It’s about found family, the hypocrisy of Christianity, and…the beach? If you aren’t subscribed to the QLP substack, you’re missing out! https://t.co/EV37pOkuG0

For quite some time, it’s been a writing goal of mine to have a piece in River Teeth’s Beautiful Things. Proud to have made it in with this little essay about my mom, who’s still my best friend. https://t.co/1GAklTuU1l

I’ve got an author questionnaire in the wonderful Memoir Land today! If you’re a CNF writer and you’re not subscribed, you should be. https://t.co/QnM4HCdPF9

Really not grasping the bad reviews and complaints about lack of plot for the new season of The Bear. When the acting is this good and the characters are this endearing, I will watch 900 hours of character development and dialogue and never get bored.

@EmergeJournal Thank you!

Hey hey it’s my birthday! It would be a lovely treat if you’d buy my book!

When @jackiedwrites “came out” right as the Trump era was revving up, she began paying closer attention to the inappropriate questions, uncomfortable reactions, and pointed assumptions about sexuality and gender she witnessed and experienced firsthand.

I bumped into a sweet neighbor, a Palestinian American guy I have come to have a chatting-on-the block relationship with, and he told me about an elderly aunt in Gaza and I asked if there was a fund for her I could donate to and he looked at me and said: there's nothing to buy.

Since next year’s AWP panel proposals are due soon, just putting it out there that I’d love to be on one about memoir in essays, queer & trans CNF, hermit crab essays, experimental CNF, small press authors, etc. Hit me up!

Listen, I know it’s had its many weaknesses, but this final season of The Handmaid’s Tale is fucking phenomenal.
