Home Run Enchanted
Strike thrice upon the bone-white plate, call to home some bloodthirsty fate. Do you believe in fairies? What about baseball magic? Opening day of senior season, and Emily DeWitt, star pitcher of the lowly Pattersonville High School Unicorns, despairs of ever winning a game, let alone attracting college scouts. Especially with archrival Callie McMasters showing her up at every base. But Unicorn Field, built on an ancient fairy ring, has plans of its own. When Emily finds herself trapped in the Fairy Realm, the downtrodden Small Folk convince her to join forces. To win her way back home, she'll have to do the impossible -- propel her team of underdog fairies through the Fairy Realm Series and defeat the unbeatable Unseelie Queen and her Designated Hitter.
Frissure
Frissure is an exquisite collection of prose-poems and illustrative work exploring healing, mortality, intimacy, memory and the natural world. It is about the intimate process of looking and seeing as it passes from one person - a cancer patient - looking at herself, from being 'examined' by a surgeon, to being looked at by an artist. In each situation a transformation occurs. The gaze of the patient on her own body and its post-operative scarring is objectified by that of the surgeon assessing the success of his work. But then the creative eye of the artist takes over and what was regarded as a mark of disease and of violation takes on an extraordinary flowering, and becomes a thing of beauty.

Reading the Lovesick Woman in Early Modern Literature
In early modern Europe, love was not a feeling, but a physiological change in the body. In its extreme, love was lovesickness, a deadly disease. Love makes the patient a desiring subject who seeks to author his own experience. The disease raises the stakes: if he cannot fulfill his desire, he will die. Yet lovesickness decreases the subject's agency because sickness makes the patient an object to be "read" and diagnosed by outside authorities. This paradox of increased agency and decreased control is particularly fraught when the patient is a woman. My dissertation analyzes the representation of lovesick women in early modern literature. While scholars have claimed lovesickness empowers wome...
