Kasia Kalinowska's political ambitions are thwarted by her ability to be assassinated by stray peanut, so instead, she writes on the internet. Her Substack, Body Lore, discusses medical history and personal corporeal mishaps. Kasia's also revising a darkly comic novel about grief and Polish-American identity, supported by Catapult’s 2023 12-month Novel Generator and Pioneer Valley Writers Workshop’s 2024 10-month Manuscript Revision Program.
