Publications of Interest

Selection #1: Anomaly

I plan on submitting to Anomaly because of the truth and strength at which the magazine stands for. My piece incorporates moments of feeling as though I was an anomaly in a sea of normality.


Selection #2: All The Sins
All The Sins places emphasis on pieces that push limits and make names for oneself. I intend on my story being portrayed not for glamour and elegance, but for the beauty of a harsh truth that was conquered.


Selection #3: Assisi: An Online Journal of Arts & Letters
Assisi caught my eye due to the focus on human behavior. I was a sociology minor in college, so I am very perceptive of human interaction.
