Thanks to the opportunity granted to me by Sigma Tau Delta this summer, I was awarded the Stemmler/Dennis LGBT& Award by Lambda Literary, an organization that advocates for queer writers, and they've generously posted my piece Grime on their website available for public viewing. Moreover, I was selected to attend this year's workshop held by them! It’s a huge honor that I've only been able to dream about. Because I write fiction, I was placed into the Fiction cohort, headed by author Alejandro Varela (it's been a pleasure getting acquainted with his work- I highly recommend his short story collection The People Who Report More Stress .). Hopefully with this workshop I will be able go develop a few projects I've had hidden away. Again, major thank you to Sigma Tau Delta and Lambda Literary for uplifting young, marginalized writers like myself.
Work from 2023 and onwards.
