Brooklyn, NY
Literary Launchpad with Tim MacGabhann
I am a Brooklyn transplant, born and raised in Chicago. And yes, I do have strong opinions about pizza. I have been writing in some form or fashion since early childhood. My fiction and poetry have appeared in the journals Caustic Frolic and Outcryer, and in Hudson Valley MOCA’s “Writing the Walls 2020” exhibit. I am currently working on a novel that will hopefully find its way along the long, winding road to publication.
This spring, I will graduate with my M.A. in Irish and Irish-American Studies at New York University, after taking “the scenic route” (four years!) toward my degree while working. I have been lucky to participate in various writing workshops and courses at NYU and elsewhere, including the Frank McCourt Creative Writing Summer School. I am excited to find another writing community and a creative “jump-start” through Under the Volcano.
