Picture
Hello! My name is Zoela. I went by Zulema for a long time, but I am Zoela now. Let me tell you about my books! My first novel, Every Other Weekend, is out in paperback. My book of flash fiction, Everything Faces All Ways At Once, is available from Fourteen Hills Press. I've also had short fiction published in a number of literary journals. 

In addition to my writing practice, I am also an educator and creative coach. I am deeply committed to the act of writing as a process of healing/liberation, and believe that everyone should have access to the transformative power of writing. I have extensive experience teaching and coaching, and have worked in a number of settings, from non-profits to classrooms to private homes. I enjoy the process of teaching and sharing, whether in front of a classroom, online, or across the kitchen table. I dedicate a part of my practice to supporting people on their writing journey.

I am also a devoted auntie and, I've been told, a pretty good dancer. Additionally, I am one half of Thoughts & Feelings and am co-founder and co-creator of Creation Island. I am the creative mastermind behind BARF, which is both a method of writing and revision and a way of life. You don't say!
