About

“Hendrix is bombastic, she is the actual spiritual third, for hers is the spirit of expansion and self exalting.” 
— Frater Asemlen, Reterritorialise

Dear Reader,

I’m an author and musician from Northern California. I played in the indie folk and international folk music scene for several years before studying electronic music composition and media technology at Mills College to learn to better set my poetry to music. Afterward I did work-for-hire as a composer and music producer and worked odd jobs to support my artistic life while I produced an EP and later an LP of my original music. Then life happened.

I’ve spent the last few years digging deeper into the craft of writing. My poetry has appeared in Nonbinary Review by Zoetic Press and the California Writers Club anthology Vision & Verse, and my short fiction has been featured in the anthology The Midnight Vault. I’m currently working on a collection of short stories called Surge & Smother, and recently published my first full-length, solo collection, Misanthrope: A Collection of Poems.

Love eternal,
Annie
