Hello old friends- I’ve been taking a break to work on some time sensitive projects that are not to do with the new album: a theatrical project, a tv project, and a writing project. I won’t say more, for fear of spoiling intrigue and contractual good faith.

Wanted to drop in and send out a link to an essay on diaspora, family history and memory I recently wrote for The Georgia Review’s Spring 2022 SoPoCo Issue. (“SoPoCo” is for Southern Post Colonial.)

The journal’s editors reached out to see if I would be interested in contributing a piece. I certainly was, and said editors certainly helped me a great deal. It was a deeply intense exercise to get through and I am glad to send greetings from the other side. I also enjoyed working on some parts of it! :)
