Here & Beyond recently published an article I wrote on Waikiki — then and now. I hope to publish more articles about authentic Hawaii to make a dent in the overwhelming amount of cultural whitewashing that represents the vast majority of media on my state.

The year-long photojournalism project I started for the Sun Journal and worked on from November 2016 through October 2017 won Project of the Year in Maine. And here’s the article that kicked it all off! A book version of the series will be published this summer.

The Instant Circus tracks 24 hours in the life of a disaffected 20-something nine-to-fiver, typical in her contemporary ennui and narcissistic self-loathing. Leaving work one day she is entranced by and trails a 13-year-old nymphette into the Red Light district. Over the course of the neon-lit night she creates and embodies a new identity, meets vultures and lost souls, and becomes a prostitute.

Now available through Amazon Kindle HERE.

Ink Sweat & Tears published one of my new poems. UK-based IS&T was founded by Salt author Charles Christian in 2007 as a platform for new poetry and short prose, and experimental work in digital media. In 2010, editor, poet and artist Helen Ivory came on board as Deputy Editor. The webzine publishes and reviews poetry, prose, prose-poetry, word & image pieces and everything in between.

I submitted several pieces from my Moon Series to Create! Magazine’s inaugural issue and they were accepted!

Create! Magazine is an independent, artist-run publication highlighting the work of artists, makers, and creative entrepreneurs. Their issues are released in a digital and limited edition print format. It was founded by artist Ekaterina Popova, also the founder of FreshPaintMagazine.

Monday’s happy surprise!
