JUNE, JUNE, JOAN!

Title page for “The Princeton Dinky” in the Summer 2025 Issue of The Massachusetts Review

Poster for the July 2025 Must Love Memoir Reading Series

Happy Pride, all! Or, as Franck Eggelhoffer might say, “Happy Prayyyddd!”

I was super excited when I found out the good folx at The Massachusetts Review wanted to publish my latest piece, “The Princeton Dinky,” and even more excited to see the final product when I received my copy of the Summer 2025 issue in the mail. I’m particularly precious about this one, in the way that I’m precious about…everything I write. But, really, this one’s great. It’s got trains! It’s got castles! It’s got delusional fugues that turn slightly smutty. It’s got everything but you! So, why not rectify that by reading the piece in full AND by supporting a wonderful journal - and, all the artists in it - by picking up a copy of the issue.

ALSO, with July on the horizon, super stoked to be on next month’s roster for the Must Love Memoir reading series. The event will take place on Tuesday, July 8th at Jake’s Dilemma on 430 Amsterdam Avenue @ 7:30pm. I’ll be reading new material (absolutely no pressure) alongside talented artists like Marisa Cadena, Susan Thorson, Samantha Mann, Carissa Chesanek, and Hope Elizabeth Kidd.

Come on out and see us!
