Ain’t nothing better than some gobsmacking queer love! Excited to revel in some pleasure with scintillating gender-bending, earthshaking poetry on February 10th. Join us at Junkyard Social, 8pm.

It’s important to celebrate our victories, even when words fail to convey what they mean to us, especially with so much devastation happening. To peace, newness, and powerful things in 2024 🥂 To being a @PeriplusCollect fellow!!!!

My first published short story in the @southern_review! The story was inspired by my mother who used to bring lunch to the protestors at Tiananmen Square in 1989. Thank you to everyone who helped me bring this story to life!

Happy Halloween, beloved! I delivered a spooky story to a sold out crowd Wednesday, alongside other excellent local writers. It was a terrifyingly good time. Couldn’t make it? We got it all in video:

Two chances to catch me in action next week! Better believe my sets will be all the way on theme for the season. Indigenous futurism and horror? Check. Welcoming ancestral visits? Check check.
