I'm an author, teacher, speaker, essayist, and opinion writer who's been publishing online since 2007. 

My newsletter and Instagram are updated sporadically. My Twitter is updated way too often. 

Here's some media coverage of me and my work. Here are some nice things people have said about me.

I have an MFA in fiction, a PhD in nonfiction, and a weird little dog. I live in Chicago.
