</About Me>

Jasper (they/them) is a Memphis-based author, humorist, poet ​and editor. Their work has been featured in The Offing, Oldster ​Mag, Huffington Post, Bitch Mag, anthology book OUTSIDE THE ​XY, and many others. Jasper currently runs two awesome ​newsletters—one self-titled, with the hopes of bringing biweekly ​whimsy to people's inboxes, and the other called HERE TO ​COMPLAIN, where annoyed black and brown folks share their ​microaggressive work stories. They also mentor at the Sam & ​Devorah Trans Youth Project. Jasper's chapbook, A ​FLAMBOYANCE, with Bottlecap Press, and their debut YA novel, ​JUNIPER LEAVES, are out now.
