Ahoy! My name is Michaella Thornton, but all of my friends call me Kella. I'm a lower Midwestern writer who loves exploring language, landscape, and literature.
Love: cannoli, kayaking, stargazing, writing essays and flash prose, and my incredible daughter.
Meh: subpar coffee, people who pronounce Missouri as Missourah, mayonnaise-based coleslaw, hopelessness.
