My name is Summer Swindle and I’m a writer from Birmingham, Alabama. Writing poetry and stories has consistently, throughout my life, been my means of expression. I take great pride in my work and how far I’ve come with it. My work mostly contains themes of mental health, my experience with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, and queer joy. I’m currently 18 years old preparing for departure from High School to Savannah College of Art and Design.
