Rawhead

New Creative Nonfiction piece out in @rawheadjournal.bsky.social and Bloody Bones, the second Halloween issue! Full of spooky writing, and an intimate look at my connection to storytelling through ghosts and being an outsider. Check it out: rawheadjournal.org/rawheadblood...

Excited to be part of this spooky issue! So many pieces in this drop to fulfill all your spooky season needs, and such beautiful and haunting idea throughout!

Have a few pieces of art in this delightfully spooky collection. Really thrilled to be alongside some fav writers.

I have three poems in the special Halloween issue of Rawhead!

"Blood batters the window, moth-bodies thunking fat on glass, quick, douse the lights, close the flue, don’t let them inside..." Read the rest of my story "Night of the Blood Moths" here:

Delighted to have two new found poems appear thanks to @jotyleon.bsky.social and @rawheadjournal.bsky.social rawheadjournal.org/rawheadblood...

Pleased & proud to have 3x spooky new haiku sequences published in this special themed issue!!!

Thanks to @jotyleon.bsky.social and everyone at @rawheadjournal.bsky.social for publishing this story in their new Rawhead & Bloody Bones issue, just in time for Halloween! rawheadjournal.org/rawheadblood...
