"It has forever been thus: So long as men write what they think, then all of the other freedoms- all of them- may remain intact. And it is then that writing becomes a weapon of truth, an article of faith, an act of courage." ~Rod Serling

My first published short story is out today with The Rumpus. I'm so excited and proud and grateful and nervous. I received many rejections on this story, a handful of warm declines, and when Roxane Gay's acceptance came in, I cried (I rarely cry)! I couldn't be more thankful
