Thank you @PENamerica for this fantastic interview! @VikingBooks @GMA
Thank you @PENamerica for this fantastic interview! @VikingBooks @GMA
So deeply honored to have won The Missouri Review’s 2024 Perkoff Prize in Nonfiction for my essay “Almost Born,” which will be published in the Winter 2024 issue. In the essay I explore the silence surrounding serial miscarriages alongside the communal joy of the Camino Santiago.
So thrilled for brilliant, beautiful fellow Sewanee scholar Marcela Fuentes, whose brilliant novel Malas came out yesterday. It is June’s Good Morning American pick and has received so many starred reviews from Kirkus and elsewhere. Buy it today if you have not already 💕

Who else is going to #awp2023? I’m moderating a panel on writing our family stories with the fabulous @ChaeJunghae, @meeravijayann, @KeyaWrites and Frances Badalamenti. Details: awpwriter.org/awp_conference…
I had the great privilege of reading Oindrila Mukherjee's novel in our writing group, and it is a gorgeous novel--illuminating, dazzling, and unique. If you haven't yet read it, please give yourself the gift of her extraordinary novel. And attend her reading! @oinkness
