Roxane Gay’s writing appears or is forthcoming in Mid-American Review, Rick Magazine, Cream City Review, Annalemma, McSweeney's (online), and others. She is the co-editor of PANK, an assistant professor of English at Eastern Illinois University, and can be found at www.roxanegay.com. Her first collection, Ayiti, will be released in 2011. She is pretty obsessed with the defunctness of sincerity and how it no longer seems cool to admit you give a damn.
