Things haven’t worked as planned this year, but I wanted to share some of my good news in the past few months.
I was pleased to attend Tin House Summer Writers Workshop for the first time. I got to work with Aimee Nezhukumatathil and meet lovely poets from across the country.
I was honored to attend the Mendocino Coast Writers Conference as a recipient of the Anne G. Locascio Scholarship. I was lucky to work with Michelle PeƱaloza.
I was honored to be chosen as an honorable mention for the McKnight Artist Fellowship, sponsored by Loft Literary Center. Natalie Diaz was the judge.
I was selected to attend Storyknife, a writers residency in Alaska, for women and non-binary writers. This is postponed until next year.
I was honored to receive the MRAC Next Step Grant.
Stay well.
