I write queer stories for queer folks.

As a young person struggling with their sexuality, gender identity, and undiagnosed mental illness, growing up in a very rural, conservative town in Kentucky was tough. Writing was my escape, my way of coping with the struggle of everyday life, of not fitting in, of desperately wishing that I could just be like everyone else. My characters became my companions; the worlds I built, my home. Not to borrow language from my religious upbringing, but my stories became my salvation. Now, I want to share those stories, in the hope that someone else might find the same comfort in them that I did, and continue to do.
