So honored and grateful to announce that I've been named a Steinbeck Fellow for 2022-23. It's incredible that my novel has this generous support behind it.

I had the lovely chance to talk to Morgan the other day (a fellow @OregonMFA alumni!) and they are a truly lovely and intelligent person. Which is even more reason to pick up this book to read their stunning fiction

"The fate of the woman is gradually made known through... unconventional reveals, but...its ramifications have the shock value of cracking ice. An excellent novel about the indelible damage dysfunctional parenting can inflict on a vulnerable child." dailymail.co.uk/home/books/a…

So many, many thanks to @JoylandMagazine and @KaitGetsLit for publishing my story "The Villagers." If you like to read about sick women and vaguely Freudian family dynamics, this is the fiction for you!
"Despite my insistence that the people around me remember I was sick—that they see it—I wanted them to forget it, too. I hated this about myself—that I needed both at once."—@kierannotmonday in this month's #PNW story "The Villagers." Read it here: joylandmagazine.com/regions/…
