Hotcakes is my newsletter about literature, culture, and writing. That’s the intention, at least. Some essays on culture and some personal musings from an itinerant fiction writer with a dog named Trout. One might call this a blog.

About Me

I’m a fiction writer and occasional poet who studies and writes about the American West, addiction, and the environment. I’m originally from Idaho but now I live in Montana. I don’t like social media, and I find nonfiction/essay to be an almost impossible genre to sink my teeth into. This newsletter is an experiment in something that does not come naturally to me.

Currently, I’m a PhD candidate in Literature and Creative Writing at the University of Southern California.
