My letter to my friend A., concerning writing and publishing and how to overcome doubt and retain the integrity of the process, has just been published at Luna Park.
I teach writing to at-risk students of color at the University of Oregon, where I received my MFA in fiction. I also have a B.A. in English with Creative Writing from Stanford, where I was a Presidential Scholar. My nonfiction has appeared in Gulf Coast, The Oxford-American, Creative Nonfiction, Guernica, The Literary Review, GOOD, Copper Nickel, New Madrid, The Rumpus, Stanford Magazine, PostRoad, Luna Park, Teachers and Writers, Anderbo, Brevity, Eclectica, Intermat, The Oregonian, The Willamette Writer, The Register-Guard, and The Eugene Weekly, and is forthcoming from The Sun in April. I was the recipient of the 2009-10 Walter Morey Fellowship from Literary Arts, and I recently won a 2011 Individual Artist Fellowship from the Oregon Arts Commission and was concurrently nominated for The 2012 Pushcart Prize. My fiction has been published in The Arkansas Review, Copper Nickel, Unsaid, Camera Obscura, and 34th Parallel. My story “Harm,” was shortlisted for the 2009 Sean O’Faolain International Fiction Prize and appears in issue 17 of the Munster Literature Centre’s magazine Southword.
From 2002-04 I taught in the MS Delta. I'm seeking representation for my novel.
