Stories, Creative Living, and a Bit of Chaos

As a writer, few things compare to the sheer joy of seeing your name alongside your work in print. Even though I’m now a transplant to the Midwest, I remain a proud contributor to South Magazine. The summer 2022 issue marks the most pieces I’ve contributed to a single issue to date (six pieces!).

There are partial versions of my articles available online with the full articles available in the print and digital editions.

If you follow me on Instagram, you probably saw my stories a few weeks ago about drooling over menus and my eternal struggle to write about food without it sounding dirty. This is the final product of that hard work.

I’m already looking forward to what I might write about this fall!
