| Bio: | I'm Darja Malcolm-Clarke--a blackbird baked in a pie and Ph.D. candidate in English studying post-WWII speculative fiction and critical theory (feminist & poststructuralist). I also write speculative fiction; I have work appearing in Clarkesworld Magazine and forthcoming in Fantasy Magazine, for example (a full list of credits here). I teach undergraduates. I'm an Articles editor for Strange Horizons. Also, a living chrysalis to moths.
It is not difference that immobilizes us, but silence.
--Audre Lorde
I ate the mythology and dreamt.
--Usef Komunyakaa
Mother, you are the one mouth
I would be a tongue to. Mother of otherness
Eat me.
--Sylvia Plath
Tales and dreams are the shadow-truths that will endure when mere facts are dust and ashes and forgot.
--Neil Gaiman
If we don't attend to how gendered identities are formed and transformed and how they are deployed politically, we simply do not have a language of sufficient explanatory power at our command with which to understand the institutionalization of power in our society and the secret sources of our resistances to change.
--Stuart Hall
They slept until the black raven
the blithe hearted
proclaimed the joy of heaven
--Beowulf
