The future isn't something hidden in a corner. The future is something we build in the present.

Hello! Here I write about a bunch of (usually) writing-related topics and according to absolutely no schedule. Topics range from political meditations to notes on teaching and learning to particularly delightful publication updates to celebrations of friendship and community (!!) to what I’ve been reading lately to… a cornucopia of lols. If you’re looking for a particular blogpost, try the post tags page. Otherwise, all posts are below, from newer to older.
