Annette Pearson is a former college writing instructor living in Austin, Texas, and on Galveston Island. She is currently working on a memoir about ambiguous loss, displacement, and finding one’s way home, titled This Is Where I’ll Be. Excerpts from that have been shortlisted for the 2022 Writers League of Texas Manuscript Contest and the Bellingham Review’s Annie Dillard Award for Creative Nonfiction, and will also appear this fall in Kaleidoscoped.
