I’ve been a fan of The Manchester Review for a long time and not just because of the amazing work they publish.

I’m very proud of this one. It’s a piece of creative nonfiction on infertility, motherhood and loss. I wrote about this a lot when I was going through it (I even wrote a book on it!) but since I’ve come out the other side and achieved some sort of distance, I’ve been reluctant to return. …
I have a piece of creative nonfiction, Exit, in the wonderful Atticus Review today. Happy that it found such a good home.
Big thanks to the gorgeous Barren Magazine (have a look!) for taking my piece on infertility, motherhood and loss, Blood Red Skies and Silver Violet Streams. Pretty proud of this one and looking forward to seeing it published next month.
My flash piece, Why the Smell of Coffee Makes you Retch, is up today in Hobart. It’s a nod to Citizen: An American Lyric by Claudia Rankine and the microaggressions that build up slowly over a lifetime and leave a lasting mark on the body.
I’ve had a creative nonfiction flash piece, Exit, accepted in the always excellent Atticus Review today. Writing it was one of those rare times when the words came tumbling out of me; I usually have to drag them syllable by syllable. So I’m gonna ride the crest of this wave all the way to publication.
