I am so very excited to announce that I have signed a Publishing Agreement with Purpled Palm Press for the publication of a full-length poetry collection in 2023 or 2024. Purpled Palm Press is a queer owned and operated publishing company located in Chicago that is most deserving of our support.
I am thrilled beyond words to be one of the writers that is going to help Purpled Palm Press expand its brand and at the same time, expand my own recognition, to a much wider audience.
Both Purple Palmed Press and I have much more to say in order to advance the recognition, specifically of transgender women in my case, and the LGBTQ+ community in general.
