Awards: (Winner) Forever Magazine Unconventional Love Stories Competition, judged by Jon Lindsey & Allie Rowbottom. (Winner) The Illumination Prize For Fictions. (Honnerable Mention/ Runner-Up) The 2022 Kenyon Review Non-Fiction Contest, judged by Maggie Neilson; Maggie Nelson goes on to say of the winning piece: “‘When You Jump Off The Brooklyn Bridge’ is a bewildering read, but it’s a good kind of bewilderment, wherein I understand more each time I read it—it’s not hiding anything. It’s complex because it’s about a subjectivity that’s all swirled up and interpenetrated by another, someone who is now dead and missed. It pays homage to that person’s keen, idiosyncratic powers of observation, by offering up the writer’s own.” (Finalist/Shortlisted/Longlisted) The 2022 ILS Fiction Contest organised in partnership with Fence and the DiTrapano Foundation (Finalist/Shortlisted/Longlisted) The Halifax Ranch Prize twice, in 2022 & 2023.
