I am over the moon to be included in the Fall 2021 issue of South Carolina Review! “Handbook for Demolition Cats” is one of my most gleefully absurd pieces and was a sheer joy to write, and I’m so grateful to the team at SCR for selecting it. “Handbook for Demolition Cats” is a companion piece to “What the River Takes,” published in Litro. Copies of South Carolina Review Volume 54.1 can be purchased on their website or at Barnes & Noble.

I’m so honored and excited and humbled to share that my short story “The Urg” was announced as a winner of Best of the Net 2019. It is a dream come true to see my name written alongside the likes of Camille T. Dungy, Kristen Arnett, and Roxane Gay, and I am so incredibly grateful to Megan Giddings and Sundress Publications for selecting my work, as well as the entire team at Porter House Review for nominating my story. “The Urg” was originally published by Porter House Review, as the winner of their inaugural Editor’s Prize for Fiction.

Please forgive the extremely late announcement, but I am so thrilled to share with you that my short story “The Urg” won the inaugural Porter House Review Prize for Fiction in March 2019! I completed this story while working with Willy Vlautin and Jack Driscoll at Pacific University, and am so, so grateful for their advice, feedback, and support. I am also incredibly grateful to the team at Porter House Review, and so proud of an accomplishment that four years ago I believed impossible.
Read the “The Urg” here, but please be warned, it involves disordered eating, which may upset some readers.
