I’ve launched a fundraising page for the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund (PCRF), an organization delivering urgent medical care and aid to children in Gaza and across Palestine. I’ve dedicated my two books, Ruptures and Mommy and the Blues, to this fundraiser—every order fuels aid through PCRF and UNRWA. Writing is resistance, but saving children will take all of us.

Free Palestine. Speak truth to power.

A poetic exploration of limerence—intense romantic obsession marked by longing, fantasy, and emotional highs. This post delves into the allure of forbidden desire, imagined intimacy, and the haunting grip of unfulfilled love. A raw, lyrical portrait of infatuation that blurs reality and illusion, capturing the ache of wanting without end.
