The Cost of Miscarriage"The cost of miscarriage was two thousand four hundred sixty-eight dollars and seventy-six cents. It was outlined on the Explanation of Benefits Annie received in the mail from the insurance company, written in twelve-point Garamond font..."

The Boy Down the Street Dies by Suicide"In the ninth grade, I learned that you say “hanged” and not “hung” when describing the way the boy down the street died by suicide."

Anti-Heroin Chic, 2022

Anti-Heroin Chic"You lifted fallen timbers onto muscle-tensed shoulders, a familiar dent creased into the space between neck and shoulder so that even when you weren’t carrying a log, the silhouette of a ghost tree was perched atop your too-tall, too-lean frame."

The Ilanot Review, 2022
