Support Dusty Brandt Howard

I write the newsletter BOYS LOVE POETRY about masculinity and other expansive things.

I am a trans masculine writer and a fighter. My work has been published in international journals and magazines such as The Lifted Brow, THEM, Cleaver, Foglifter, and DECENT. I hold a Master’s degree in Creative Writing from University of Westminster in London and an low-res MFA in Poetry from the IPRC in Portland, Oregon. I am currently working on my debut memoir about queerness, power, trauma, and the darker sides of unhealed feminism. I have a gravitational pull to articulating things that are notoriously difficult to talk about. When I'm not writing, I spend my time psychoanalyzing reality TV or being outside in Colorado with my partner and our freaky rescue dogs.
