mary amelia fuselier

Born in 1995 on the edge of the swamps of America's Deep South, Mary Amelia Fuselier has come, many times over, a long way from home. An often unwelcome immigrant, a lowly gardener, a talentless but fervent painter, a clumsy waitress, and a recovering economist, she is no stranger to crises of identity (including but not limited to: "Am I a millennial or that other one that comes after?"). She has fallen in love with reinventing herself; it has become a way of Being. Most recently, she identifies as a verbal portraitist, armchair philosopher, and avid teller of stories. Perhaps some of those will stick. In any case, readers are lucky to have caught her at just the right moment, before she shapeshifts again.
