79 words: Shantell Powell is a swamp hag and elder goth raised in an apocalyptic cult on the land and off the grid. She’s a McCormack Writing Center (formerly Tin House) scholar, and a graduate of SFU’s The Writers’ Studio and the Banff Centre for Arts and Creativity’s horror residency. An Aurora finalist, and a Journey and Pushcart nominee, her writing is in The Malahat Review, The Deadlands, Nightmare, and dozens more. She wrangles chinchillas and gets filthy in the woods.
