Kate will create a collection of interactive short stories for people, specifically queer women, to read when they are experiencing high levels of anxiety. Kate’s science fiction stories about lesbians set inside the moon and homes that provide for its occupants, imagine a world where there is safety and calm for people who often feel unsafe both in the external world and in their own minds. The stories will be featured in a zine along with ideas for making it through acutely anxious times, and will provide space for readers to create their own work.
