Short Story Update: Queer Sea of Change

Published on 19 July 2023 at 15:49

Welcome back to our guest writer, Ghost! Their second submission is a short story that answers the prompt: "How has the way you understand your gender changed over time? How has it affected your access?" The text uses imagery of sea creatures that morph their bodies to protect themselves in new environments to discuss the ways queer folx change themselves as they pursue safety in an unsafe world and seek a version of themselves that fits their identity.

Ghost is a genderqueer and poly writer who loves to explore metaphors and use poetic language. They are new to submitting work but excited to do so! During the work day, she is an Electrical Engineer. They graduated from Olin College in December 2022. Ghost uses all pronouns.

Many thanks to Ghost for sharing their work with us! Click the link below to read their short story, "Queer Sea of Change."
