Hard Skin Book Birthday and Wigleaf Top 50
You guys! My book is in the world! I have yet to touch it or smell it but I know that it’s in print and winging its way to me and to my publisher and to all of you who have ordered it! Mahalo Nui Loa for buying it and supporting my work.
If you haven’t had the chance, here are links to where you can get it:
Sorry, it's not all of the countries - but as you can see, it's available at most Amazons and probably online at your major bookstore in your area!!
If you are in the US, you could order it directly from Juventud Press!
On top of this, I got listed in Wigleaf’s Top 50 for my short story in Superstition Review, “Fishing for Akule.” I am beyond thrilled to receive this honor! Every year, I hope to even make the longlist, so this is wonderful news.
I was also able to participate in Flash Flood this year with my piece '“a girl” - It was fun and I even wrote to one of their prompts - “Tita Wants.”
I also have a reprint of “Believe We Are Magic” in Syncopation Literary Journal as well as a micro, “the graduation party you decided to skip,” in The Citron Review’s Summer Issue! Celebrate all of the good things with me!
I am currently in Gwen Kirby’s intensive for SLQ’s Summer Workshop and it’s been great, but I am also writing in tandem with the normal workshop and it’s kicking my ass (a little).
Sending light and love and positive writing vibes to you all!
