Anything you can do, I can do crying. Writer (pubs on site). Managing editor @rejectionlit. Querying a literary/speculative novel.
“Sometimes the past pulls at me like seaweed gripping around my ankle, dragging me into a rift in the ocean floor. And if I just look down, look at the face of the sea creature holding me, then some great idea will be illuminated.” New work @okaydonkeymag okaydonkeymag.com/2025/07/11/div…
Recommendations on where to sub a very sad and very tiny pow-eem?
I will not tweet Taylor Swift lyrics when I’m sad. I will not tweet Taylor Swift lyrics when I’m sad. I will not tweet Taylor Swift lyrics when I’m sad…

Fresh cut 🔪 Channelling Amy Dunne in Gone Girl (when she’s murdery of course.)
I know we (me) bitch about querying the novel, but I do love the hunt of it. There’s an adrenaline rush of being back on the dating market, dressing yourself up and throwing yourself at strangers asking for external validation and for them to make your dreams come true.
Hey, it’s me your DJ X. I’m here to play the same five songs for you over and over again until the opening bars of one of them sends you into a homicidal rage. Let’s check ‘em out!
My (girl) dog named Frankie was acting up and my husband just yelled FRANKLIN DELANO ROOSEVELT! And it worked? I think my pup is FDR reincarnated.
Such an honor. Long live Tabby!
Aaaand we got @mm_kaufman tracked for seasonoftheseawitch.com!!! Thank you, maymay, for exquisitely portraying the voice of a bratty 17-year-old girl.
Just tried really hard to wipe an errant apostrophe off my computer screen if you want to know where my head is at today.
Really proud of this one. Give it a read if you have a few spare minutes.

I'm just a girl. Standing in front of submittable. Asking it to move her sub to "in progress."
A found poem, but it’s just all the captions from my years worth of carwash selfies.
