Happy Birthday and belated book-versary to my dear friend and collaborator—and incredibly talented author, editor, and writer extraordinaire—Cassandra Lane! The world is better for you and all that you do. In awe, Cassandra! 💜🎉

That's really my name up there, isn't it? I really had an idea and then wrote all of this into existence. None of this feels real. None of it. It helps to be a continent and an ocean away from Hollywood. But still...surreal.

I’m grateful and honored Light Skin Gone to Waste has been shortlisted for the 2024 Saroyan Prize.

OMG.

I can't believe that my story "Uncle Jimmy" is out in the Fall '24 Ploughshares is on Bluesky! I wrote it over many late nights when my son was still a baby and I was just believing I could be a fiction writer. Writing it was like medicine to me. So glad it's in a dream pub. Get yourself a copy!

Doesn't it just look like perfect fall reading? 🤩🍂 #longform #litmag #writingcommunity #writerslift #writersread pshares.org/product/fall-2…

Congratulations to my friend Crystal Wilkinson for her latest book being named one of Amazon’s Best Books of 2024 Congratulations lady on this well deserved honor🥂
