Oh my loves, please share this poem. It means a lot to me that survivors of abuse hear it and that it can help them shed some of the societal induced stigma, help realize they aren’t to blame. I’m with you.

"I’ve been rereading your story. I think it’s about me in a way that might not be flattering, but..."

“I’ve been rereading your story. I think it’s about me in a way that might not be flattering, but that’s okay. We dream and dream of being seen as we really are and then finally someone looks at us and sees us truly and we fail to measure up. Anyway: story received, story included. You looked at me long enough to see something mysterioso under all the gruff and bluster. Thanks. Sometimes you get so close to someone you end up on the other side of them.”

On behalf of PEN Center USA and Narrow Books, I’m very proud to announce the slate for The Rattling Wall, Issue 4!

I’m feeling the warm and fuzzies that I’ll be appearing in such a beautiful and respected journal. Holy, home.

Didn't you already have a book deal with WB? Why are you competing again?

I do already have a book published by Write Bloody, but I wrote a second book in the year since the last was published, and I would love the opportunity for them to publish me again! If you want to help me make that possible, please “like” this poem right here. XO
