Ex-professional ballet dancer turned writer (they/she). I’ve had three great loves in my life: dancing, writing, and being queer. I’ve written (and #amquerying) a novel, The Fire Years, that includes all three. ❤️🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️

I’m salivating a little bit over your choices! A Wrinkle in Time was the book that turned me into a reader. And I just finished Lahiri’s Roman Stories—beautiful!

19 year-old male ballet dancer staying at a youth hostel. Upstairs neighbor puts on the Chili Peppers, and Thomas puts on his headphones with the Bizet. Because he’s an anxious, sweet little nerd. ❤️
