“We agree on lots of things actually, except for all the real stuff that’s too heavy to lift, too overbearing and glaring, too true. Like when I tried to tell you that I was molested, and you asked me, “How does something like that even happen? I mean, why do you think it happened to you?” Yeah, stuff like that. And the other time I tried to tell you about the panic attacks I was having due to the trauma, and you said, “Trauma? What trauma?” Grateful to @CharlotteHam504 (EIC) for republishing my CNF “We Don’t Talk” in Sugarsugarsalt Lit Mag (first in @CleaverMagazine ) This one still hurts.

"I would argue that all spouses, military and civilian, can recognize within her story similar aspects of their own." I'm honored to have this book review in @CleaverMagazine for CAMOUFLAGE, written by a military spouse. Thank you! cleavermagazine.com/camoufla…

Excited to publish my new short story "Off-Script" in Cleaver! It's a rather madcap, satirical piece about political disillusionment -- something that has no relevance today, at all. cleavermagazine.com/off-scri…
