BIG NEWS:

I’m SO thrilled to announce that I am now represented by literary agent Joanna Rasheed at Ultra Literary! She has such a strong vision for my manuscript! I can’t wait for this next step on the ladder towards publication!

The next several months will be super busy. I will be working with Joanna to get my manuscript ready for submission to publishers, and will also be starting my fully-funded year-long mentorship at The Humber School for Writers in September. I’m incredibly lucky to be paired with Giller Prize-finalist Marina Endicott as my mentor. We will be working on my newest work-in-progress manuscript. The mentorship is part of the prize package for winning the 2024 Toronto Star Short Story Contest. It’s truly a dream come true!

I’m also thrilled to have stories nominated for a Pushcart Prize, Best Small Fictions, and had one of my stories selected for Best Microfiction 2024, the collection of amazing stories is available for purchase here.

Upcoming publications include stories in South Florida Poetry Journal, The Fabulist Words and Art, Ghost Parachute, Barren Magazine, McQueen’s Quinterly, and SugarSugarSalt Magazine.

I hope the rest of 2024 will continue to have wonderful publishing news for me and for all my wonderful writer friends!
