My essay “Alaska On Fire” is now on The Hellebore

Goodday mateys! I’m excited to announce that my essay Alaska on Fire was published in the latest issue of the Hellebore, Black Moss.

An acquaintance called it an “insightful, well-written piece on last summer’s wildfires, budget destruction and the Tlingit idea of shukalxs uxs’— where the end is called back to the beginning”.

I have also included some stunning art by featured artist Reyna Noriega — in my favorite colors, rose and teal!
