So excited for my piece to be featured in the latest issue of @trampset.bsky.social. Do check it out & the amazing work of fellow writers <3

I miss her so much, but the work is on the rest of us now. @ursulakleguin.com at the 2014 National Book Awards. "I think hard times are coming when we will be wanting the voices of writers who can see alternatives to how we live now." www.youtube.com/watch?v=Et9N...
