First and Last: A Short Story Collection
This slim collection of short stories is made of some of my favorite ends and bits of writing from my twenties. I published it on June 2nd, 2020, partially to help my husband and I as we adjusted to life in Los Angeles, and to finally let these stories live out in the world.
