Illustrating this essay on sexual validation, body image, and women’s reproductive health by @ppirapokin last month was so timely, considering what was going on in the Supreme Court. 🤰⚖️ Hope you enjoy this read at @mbfast Thanks to @rrrubenstein for the art assignment 💛

I'm ecstatic to have a story in the brand new issue of Midnight Breakfast alongside so many writers I admire! Come for the creepy hallway rumors, stay for the Purim deep cuts. And WOW that illustration by @Madeline_Gobbo is a stunner.

Finally had a chance to read this exquisite story by @reenashah The language, the flow, the tension and emotion and—agh! From the very first paragraph: "The sun overhead and our faces shadows and teeth. Our mothers are nowhere. We used to be friends." Really admiring this story
What an honor it is to be a part of this 🔥 issue! Thank you @mbfast @rrrubenstein and @laureneoneal for the excellent edits.
