The Woman Who Knows"In the dream, you let me down just like all the years before. I know you like I know the insides of my eyelids. Still, I’m ready for you to surprise me. Just in case."

Autostraddle, 2022

How Chloe Caldwell’s “Women” Shaped My Queer Heartbreak"I desperately wanted to be cool for her. Sexy, smart, down for whatever. I didn’t want her to know how badly I thought I needed her. I couldn’t acknowledge that this was unsustainable, that my life wasn’t the novella I had convinced myself it was."

Half Mystic, 2022

There and Wanting"I love people who turn me into someone free and feral, someone who’d do anything for one more taste. Someone unafraid. But now everyone is afraid of me. Everyone who isn’t her becomes collateral. For the first time, I don’t care what it will cost."

Bullshit Lit, 2022
