NYC — Chelsea Hodson is the author of the essay collection Tonight I'm Someone Else (2018) and the chapbook Pity the Animal (2014). She teaches at the Bennington MFA program and at the Mors Tua Vita Mea workshop in Italy and also does private writing consultations. We met at a reading back in December in Bushwick. I read her book a couple times over the past couple months. Buy her book.
