About

Daisy, a fair-skinned white woman with freckles, standing in a wooded area with one hand resting on a tree trunk, wearing a long textured coral-colored dress with short sleeves, a gathered neckline, a smock waist, and a tiered skirt, with her auburn curls held back by a shiny pink headband

I’m a totally blind queer poet, currently trapped in Oklahoma with aspirations of living just about anywhere else. I’m a radical leftist, a horror fanatic, a crazy cat lady, a voracious bookworm, a bad but enthusiastic gardener, and a good daydreamer, and I’m a big fan of podcasts, water, birds, autumn, and breakfast food. A half-serious witch and a wholly serious devotee of excavating joy from the mundanities of life, I exist at the intersection of shimmer and simmer, rapture and rage.

 

I have been published in Corvid Queen and Lavender Review, and I also write a weekly newsletter called Keep Hoping Machine Running.
