My short story “Death Wish” was translated into poetics by the Poet Nico Popow through Pinky Thinker Press as part of their Conversations in Translation series. Thank you so much to the Chief Editor Charly Santagado and Poet Nico Popow for exploring the creative potential of my work through other mediums.

If anyone else is interested in Conversations in Translation, I highly recommended Pinky Thinker Press’ initiative to see art re-manifest in other forms.

Moreso, as a professor, one of the major aspects of my pedagogy is seeing art as generative of art. By fostering a mindset of perceptual inspiration, the act of creation can be primed through exploring manifestations of creativity.

This philosophy aligns perfectly with Pinky Thinker Press’ Conversations in Translation. Another reason I appreciate their work.
