WHAT IS ART TO YOU

WHAT IS ART TO YOU

Helen Armstrong (she/her) was born in the woods of Pennsylvania. She now lives and writes at the base of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado.

She has an MFA from Brown University where she taught creative writing and tried not to be washed out to sea. She was a 2022 Tin House Scholar and her work has been published in Black Warrior Review and other places.

You can find her in bite-sized pieces on Elon’s Internet @hkawrites or, preferably, in the mist, wailing, waiting, wanting, wishing.

Email works too: helenkarmstrong@gmail.com

Colonial Girl is a newsletter reckoning with personal, ancestral, and colonial history.

Got your own project? I’d love to help with fiction, essays, and MFA Applications.
