Lee Anderson (they/them) is a trans writer with roots in the American -west and an MFA from Northern Arizona University. They have been published sporadically but with zest, appearing in places such as Brevity, Salt Hill Journal, The Rumpus, Columbia Journal, and Gertrude. More of their work is forthcoming in the Best American Food and Travel Writing 2025 anthology and Aquifer: The Florida Review Online. (You can read more about them and all of the cool things they’ve been lucky to do in the “ABOUT” page.)

They are currently working on a speculative memoir about community and personal griefs, transition (gender, climate, and otherwise), and personal mythologies. There is never a time they aren’t juggling several essays on similar subjects and transiently working on novels that will never see the light of day.

They are an Assistant Editor for Best of the Net Awards, Managing Editor for Half Mystic, on the editorial board for Sundress Publications, and occasionally garden, do arts & crafts, and hang out with their cat Pretzel.
