Hey, read my story in the latest @asfmag! And then all the amazing stories in this issue (mine’s amazing too). And then don’t tell my mom anything about it.
The secret’s out...VONA Online is happening this summer! In lieu of our traditional summer experience and available only to 2020 applicants, decisions have been sent out. More announcements to come!
DEADLINE EXTENSION: VONA Summer 2020 submission deadline has been extended to February 29, 2020.
At VONA, emerging writers of color are mentored by accomplished, award-winning, internationally known writers of color.
Well I’m in for fiction at Cornell (!!!). I still haven’t wrapped my mind around it or talking to (with me mostly taking deep breaths between dancing) to Helena Viramontes. Still waiting for a few more schools. I guess I can tweet more now.
I’ve known a few people who lived through the Third Reich. They all described the destruction of democratic principles and open society as starting with howls of protest and outrage and then, one day, it was as if authoritarianism had always been there.
I’m here! Hiatus over. I’ve submitted my MFA apps. Thank you to the many people who support and guide me and the people who let me support and guide them. I’m also happy to report that my short story in J Journal has been nominated for a Pushcart.
