Hi all, and Happy Monday! I hope you enjoyed your weekend. It’s been a little quiet around here while I work my way through some new projects, but I wanted to take a moment to share one of the successes: My interview with Shaindel Beers, author of the lovely poetry collection, Secure Your Own Mask, is now live with The Rumpus!
Thank you, all, so very much for your support. I hope you have an opportunity to read it; our time discussing these questions was so much fun, and Shaindel’s poetry is lovely, and comes highly recommended!
