She is also a cartoonist whose feminist-inspired works have been published in Ms. magazine. A film school graduate, she knows how to rack focus and wrangle a cable and can tell you what a best boy does.

A Heavy Dose of Allison Tandy (2022)
(Heavy Dose of Allison Tandy, book 1)
Jeff Bishop
"A pitch perfect debut. Jeff Bishop's fresh voice deftly captures the gut churning angst of heartbreak and how difficult it is to see our own role in it. With all of its hallucinatory hilarity, you won't feel the lump in your throat sneak up on you until it's too late to get that box of tissues and a weighted blanket. You may never get over Allison Tandy."
Confessions of an Alleged Good Girl (2022)
Joya Goffney
"Deeply empowering. Sweet yet candid. Ms. Goffney's fearless story about the path to self acceptance and the unexpected people who help on the journey is the perfect antidote to purity culture. A necessary tale that reads like a secret that everyone should hear about."
