Emma is a writer from Virginia with a fixation on embodiment and generational inheritances. Someone once described her writing as “gorgeous,” “obsessive,” and “danc[ing] on the edge of unhinged,” and she never felt more seen.
Her work appears or is forthcoming in Every Day Fiction, Rejection Letters, Elsewhere: A Journal of Place, and Right Hand Pointing. She lives in Minneapolis with her husband and two cats.
