Newly Published Play

Humans crave comfort. 💕 From sweet treats 🧁, familiar television shows 📺, and warm blankets ✨, it’s normal to want to feel warm and fuzzy. The problem ‼️ with that is sometimes growth requires one to struggle and be uncomfortable. This is the central premise of my short play “The Art of the Avoidance.” 📚

Jessica is sick of her ex-boyfriend Sam avoiding her at work events so she makes a plan to break the ice at 🎨 a gallery opening — only to discover she’s avoiding other aspects of her life as well. 😳

This quirky comedy was published this summer as part of the New Voices Anthology of Short Plays: Summer 2026 Edition. 🥳 I was so excited about it but also overwhelmed with my first ever performed play “Motherhood Either/Or” that I neglected to promote it. 🫣 Now is the time to make up for that oversight.

🎉 You can get your very own copy of the Anthology here! 🎉 Beyond my own play, it's full of great work by my fellow New Voices members.
