Hello. I write essays, criticism, profiles and fiction. I have written for the New York Times Magazine, New York Magazine, The Guardian and many other places. My short stories have been published in The Stinging Fly and Granta. My first novel, Lazy City, was published in 2023 and won a Betty Trask Award.
I do not call myself a journalist because I make no claim to objectivity in my work. If you are writing about me, the accurate way to describe my non fiction work is to call me a critic.
I have also featured on This American Life and various radio programs and podcasts to discuss my work. You can see examples in my media appearances section.
I write a weekly-ish essay and post recent work on my substack, if you wish to follow.
My agent is Tracy Bohan at The Wylie Agency.
