As a mag editor for @slantdcreative for the last 3 issues, I loved working with AAPI creatives to tell their stories. 🥰 Excited for where we’re heading! Help me reach my goal of raising $500 to help our all-volunteer staff rebuild this year. givebutter.com/rebuildslantd/…

Hi, it's me, the woman crying at a coffeeshop where I'm trying to work and write after dropping my baby off at day care.

My local Tokyu Store had a section in the prepared foods area today with "American food" as part of their "American Fair". Come and step through the looking glass with me.

There are ~10 more days to get an exclusive pre-order bundle for @slantdcreative issue 5! It was such an honor to work with contributors and the other editors on an issue that is filled with joy and energy and wonder. See the magic for yourself: bit.ly/slantd-issue5

It will be a fall of discovering … all the masks that I forgot about in my jacket pockets.

So, um short story acceptance from Crazyhorse. I cried for most of last night, couldn't sleep, and nearly threw up. This will be my first short story pub to a major journal. 😭

@mollywritesalot @stacystaces Thanks for the tag, Molly! Haven’t found a group yet but would love to be in one. Hugo house has group writing sessions sometimes that used to be in person. Not sure if they’re still virtual!
