Treesong for a Sun-Touched Tuesday, Solarpunk Magazine
“What do you hear, Emmity?”
Renna’s voice in my ear, annoyingly calm. Like a twinkle of bells, alight on a summer’s breeze. Together, we’re poised before the oldest tree in the academy’s sun-bright rooftop garden—it stretches tall above me, an oaken god a hundred feet tall and ages old. As old as the academy itself. Renna’s hand is on my back, a soothing pressure, as I press the pads of my fingers to tree bark. My eyes drift shut.

Her House There By The Mountain, Kaleidotrope
January 2021
Anet stands at the head of the grave pit where they’ll bury the box: six inches by six inches. Her head is bowed, her lips glued shut in mourning and her feet a shoulder’s width apart. Around her buzz the whispers of the funeral crowd. The mourners shuffle into one another as they inch closer, trying to see the burial. Behind her, Petir wails loudly.
Shadows & Preserves, The Spectatorial
2015
The market comes every summer. It comes in the murky heat with its bustling customers and boisterous farmers until the town jostles with conversation. And, every summer, the girl's family makes preserves to sell at the market—jars and jars of them, until their store room is full to the brim with bright red and deep plum jars.
