Femme On Creatives: Kelly Grace Thomas

Alyson is joined by Kelly Grace Thomas, poet, coach and author of her memoir-in-verse Future Tense (Alice James Books coming out next month and available for pre-order now). A book about the dual grief of losing her mother while trying to become a mother herself. They talk about grief, the commodification of women' s bodies, breaking the silence around these issues and the beauty of community. Alyson loved Kelly’s book and the surprisingly light hearted conversation it inspired. Check it out! Some of Alyson’s favorite quotes: “But does the future ever arrive in the dress we pick out?” “A body so corrupt not even capitalism could save it.” “How sick being a woman can make you.” You can find more about Kelly and her work at her website: https://www.kellygracethomas.com and at her Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellygracethomas You can pre-order Future Tense here.
