shea writes.

shea martin is a brilliant, queer, gender-expansive writer raised at the intersection of gospel and go-go (shout out to the DMV). With southern roots and Black queer magic, shea writes nonfiction, fiction, and poetry that smells like your grandmama’s kitchen and sounds like a deep blues moan. No matter the genre, shea’s work centers and explores the intersections of race, gender, sexuality, class, and nature within and beyond our society.

shea dares readers to imagine and redefine what is possible – worlds where joy is infinite, justice is imminent, and pleasure, abundant. their work has been featured in Research on Diversity in Youth Literature, Radical Teacher, Autostraddle, and Electric Literature. At its core, shea wesley martin’s writing haunts us with honesty and boundlessness that we just can’t shake loose.
