Yeah, reality tv is preventing women and LGBT+ people from creating art! Unrelated, but you can order copies of my RH- and DR-inspired poetry collections May All Our Pain Be Champagne (@thealienbuddha) and Now Let's Get Brunch (@QuerenciaPress) on most online retailers.

my most controversial queer opinion is that reality tv like drag race and real housewives was dreamed up in some hollywood board room by Big Straight as part of a resoundingly successful conspiracy to distract women and gays and stop them from producing another sontag or baldwin

Bookmail is my copy of the Unstable anthology from @QuerenciaPress! Glad to see three of my poems in print and to shove a middle finger in the face of the dickhead who inspired its creation.

One of my favorite things about sending out poems based on MST3K riffs is finding out just how many lit editors are MSTies.

My prose poem "Let Her Pass Over Me" will be appearing in Oracle: Fine Arts Review! I wrote this in one of @JoseHernandezDz's workshops last year so I can't wait for it to be out in the world.
