I'm so excited you're here!
I'd love for you to sign up for my newsletter. On a monthy(ish) basis you'll hear publishing updates, hear about what I'm reading, and learn about new and interesting things going on in the writing and chronic illness communities.
Oh, and there's occasional exclusive content, like access to an audio recording of me reading #Exist, a poem from my debut chapbook, Lift the Mask.
