It's my birthday 😊 And my debut story collection SLIGHT is now available for pre-order 👀 Its afterword is a beautiful conversation with co-editors Jourdain Barton and Geoffrey Billetter about literary style, voids, and the darker corners of girlhood. temperpress.com/catalogue/p/sl…

god i loved this book

The final story from my recent collection was published today--the winter solstice, of all days. Endless thanks to the editors @MinnesotaReview (Duke UP) for taking "Sketches," a strange little piece that's as dark as this night will be long. read.dukeupress.edu/the-minnesota-…

@the_point_mag Lovely piece 🙏

Thanks to everyone at @jmwwjournal for organizing such a great flash fiction reading yesterday 🙏 And cheers to my fellow presenters -- I loved hearing your work!

Last night! Many many thanks to @exhibitb312, @guildLITcomplex, @PilsenCommBooks, and my fellow presenters ✨

“I remember my sister every time my daughter pads into my room at night and whispers my name: that whistling voice, her milky musk. For a second, before I wake fully, I’m certain she’s come to kill me. “I’m thirsty,” my daughter will say…” – Nat Holtzmann necessaryfiction.com/stories/dappli…

@SamRasnake Thank you for reading!

@nakiyahtianna thanks bb

This week my roses bloomed and Issue 51 of @salthilljournal arrived. I'm honored that it includes my sneaky, sticky, low-key vicious story "Slaughter" 😈 My first print publication! Here's a peek; the first few pages

Excited about this one 🫁 Come join us on Thursday, May 30 at one of my very favorite bookstores, @PilsenCommBooks! I'll be reading new work. Many thanks to the folks at @exhibitb312 & @guildLITcomplex for making it happen 🩶
