Holy. I should not start this blog post with this, but I’m going to anyway. You would not believe how many tries it took for me to come up with a title for this post. It was truly remarkable, which, is probably why I’m remarking upon it \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n

I am incredibly excited to share the news that my poem, “Poltergeist” which was originally published in Star*Line<\/em> magazine last year has been nominated for an Aurora Award.<\/p>\n

Yay!<\/p>\n

Check out the company it’s in!<\/p>\n
