Hello Twitter. I'm here to talk about literature, climate change, infrastructure, obsolete things, whales, art, and all of the cool things you're working on. Probably also cats.

This has been a huge few months for me. I came out 🏳️🌈 at 46 and am living on my own for the first time in my life. I was in a very dark place until I accepted my truth. The second pic is of me scared yet excited for the future. Also sorry for the earnest tweet lol love y’all

Loved reading “On Earth or in Poems: the Many Lives of Al-Andalus”, by @eric_calderwood.
A book about the various ways in which Al-Andalus has been represented in art and literature, it made Granada come alive. And the chapter on Palestinian al-Andalus was particularly moving.

What do humans owe the ecosystems we've terrorized?
I spent a very long time reporting this story on whaling history, the North Atlantic right whale, and Nantucket. Please give it a read: nytimes.com/2024/12/22/opi…

I LOVED working with the editors at @limn_press: I loved the collaborative peer review process and being part of a cohort thinking together about obsolescence. I also appreciated the deep care that went into editing and design.

I'm delighted to have an article in LIMN 11, the Obsolescence issue, out now in *gorgeous* print and online editions. I write about the politics of wind energy and the uncanny returns of whaling culture on Nantucket. 1/
