Story in "Forward: 21st Century Flash Fiction"

My story "How to Catch a Sun" is now out in a new anthology, Forward: 21st-Century Flash Fiction. This story about a woman blinded by a solar eclipse and how she lived through two wars and one revolution first appeared in my favorite flash fiction journal, Wigleaf.

Great to see this story sandwiched between the work of so many brilliant fiction writers of color. The anthology is available to order here.

Want to hear my serious just-getting-over-a-cold voice reading "How to Catch a Sun"? Of course you do! Listen on Soundcloud.

Poem in "Writers Resist" Anthology

We The People Who March

We walk because that is all to be done

all our bodies can do

when so much has been done to us...

The night before the Women's March in DC in 2017, I wrote this poem "We The People Who March." I was scared, hopeful and still had no idea of the institutionalized cruelty and bigotry we were going to see since then. Now that I'm back in Switzerland, feeling helpless over the constant hail of heart-breaking news, I like to think back to that first march and know that we have so much more ground to cover.

The poem is now featured in the Writers Resist Anthology along with other word-fists of resistance.
