I’m bringing these limited edition tote bags to AWP! I only have 20 to sell so let me know if you want to reserve one 💕 They’re inspired by the cover to my CNF chapbook, EDGE OF THE SEA @cutbankonline Featuring a photograph that I took & developed

So excited to announce that my debut poetry collection, sipèstisyon, is now available for preorder. Shoutout to my community for their never-ending support and patience. It's been a long long journey. I can't wait to share these poems with y'all. yesyesbooks.com/product-page/s…

There's so much to write, so begin again. Just begin again.

Our Spring 2026 Collection bears witness to the human heart— girlhood & grief, rage & reclamation, desire & defiance, love & lineage. Four voices, one chorus of transformation: Where poetry meets survival, & story becomes healing. 🔗 👉 buff.ly/EI1zzdz

So, I was recently featured in The Nation, which is kind of a big deal. But also, I was interviewed by a high school student for the student paper in February, which is also a big deal. His questions were really smart. I don't think I shared it earlier. vikingsaga.org/20001/qa/in-co…

Happy International Men’s Day to all the boys that never die!

no one has a victim complex like a man who thinks he's a good person

On Saturday, November 8th, I received The Future Awards Africa’s 2025 Prize for Literature. This means everything to me. Everything.
