A Writer for Myself and ‘Others’

Long story short:

Russell Nichols (he/is/him) is a speculative fiction writer, poet, playwright, and endangered journalist.

Nomadic since 2011, he lives out of his backpack, standing on the cross streets of Afrofuturism and Hip Hop. His work has appeared in various places. He’s won some awards. This is what he does. Not all of who he is.

Frank Baum’s The Wonderful Wizard of Oz with a vibrant Black spin.
