Success sometimes looks like eating red beans & rice on the porch of my brick bungalow while pale pink peonies bloom, Ani singing through the window, & I just finished meeting with my childhood library system, where I will be facilitating a workshop with a publisher whose work elevates the Midwest 🩷

Highlighted purple text from the novel Luster by Raven Leilani: "It's that there are gray, anonymous hours like this. Hours when I am desperate, when I am ravenous, when I know how a star becomes a void."
