So thrilled to announce that my second collection, DEED (weslpress), has been selected as the winner of the ALA's Rainbow RT Stonewall Book Awards Barbara Gittings Prize! I’ve dreamed for years of seeing my work receive this award and it means the world that the panel chose DEED

I’ve been asked to share some poems that engage (perhaps v broadly / generally) with the topic of “how media can influence perception” for an upcoming event… Do y’all have any favorites?

Doechii is a star.
