L.A. Barron finds sanctuary in the soft underbelly of horror and speculative fiction. Whether it's online or in their collection of hard cover journals, their work orbits themes of devotion, the physicality of emotions, and the rot that lives inside us all. They previously published their short story "Still We Rot." in Contrarian Publishing's Blood, Sweat, and Queers anthology. They live in the Pacific Northwest with their cat.
