Besides scholarly studies on canonical authors from Shakespeare to Toni Morrison, she also writes creatively. Her poems have been published in online and print journals internationally, cross-genre historical fiction has appeared in Dappled Things, and a short story, “The Brick Wall,” was semi-finalist for a fiction contest at Ruminate.
