My latest story "Watch Where You're Going" is now available to read in issue six of Olit Magazine. In it, two trans people watch a movie and talk about life while one of them finishes her shift at a video store. This story is loosely inspired by my own experiences of having friends come hang out with me and watch movies during my shifts at Family Video in college (shout out to @indecisivesailorscout for keeping me company all those times, and for snacks). It is also a conversation about making meaning for oneself, and about choosing art and authenticity over that which is expected of you. Content warning for references to homophobia/transphobia.

Thank you to Maggie Wolff, Nicole Balsamo and the staff of Olit Magazine for including my story in this issue. I highly recommend everyone check out the rest of the issue, it's a really great one.

Updates: writing writing writing. Two stories forthcoming this winter which I'm happy to announce will be in Olit Magazine and Diet Milk Magazine. Otherwise I'm splitting my time between the 3rd draft of book 2 and more standalone short fiction to distract myself from all the submissions currently pending. I'm hoping to start revising the novel starting in mid/late October to have something ready to query by the end of the year, as was the original plan; currently formulating the nicest possible way to nudge the people who haven't started it to do so soonish...
