Madeleine Mitchell is an essayist and short story writer. As Malin James, her work has appeared in Electric Literature, Bust, MUTHA, Queen Mob’s Tea House, Cosmo UK, and Medium, as well as in podcasts and anthologies for Cleis Press, Sweetmeats Press and Stupid Fish Productions. Her first collection, Roadhouse Blues, is available in all the usual places. She is currently at work on her first novel.

On a less 3rd person note, my favorite thinkery thing is to using psychology as a lens through which to examine cultural assumptions, identities, and relationships. Also, I ❤️ books (SO MUCH).
