in the third person reluctant (Gap Riot Press, 2024). other pieces
appear in lockbox, long con magazine, CV2, Windsor Review, and MediaTropes,
among others. brandy has become obsessed with collage over the last few years,
leaving tiny bits of paper and sticky surfaces in her wake. two collage series

alongside Gap Riot’s Kate Siklosi and poets Brian Dedora and Kate Sutherland.
