Bio
Cassidy M. Wells graduated with honors from Loyola University New Orleans with a B.A. in Criminology & Justice and graduated with her Master of Fine Arts in Fiction Writing at Sarah Lawrence College. She’s a 2024 Hurston Wrights Fellow and the nonfiction editor at The New Orleans Review. As a New Orleans native, Wells seeks to fill the gaps of literature about her home in the Mississippi and Louisiana Gulf Coast that has notably erased the Black identity and experience by blending the roles of speculative, and literary fiction in her stories.
