LP Kindred is an Ignyte Award nominated writer and editor, podcaster, and teaching artist of speculative fiction from the axes of Black and Gay Identities. His fiction explores the margins of belonging in contexts of community demands of an individual, individual demands of the community, and the ways both entities fail and succeed each other. An alum of Hurston-Wright, VONA, and Clarion workshops, LP's words feature in Apex, Fiyah Literary Magazine, LeVar Burton Reads, the Carnegie Hall website, Escape Pod, and PodCastle. Kindred is a cocoa-founder of Voodoonauts, a grassroots collective addressing the under-representation and isolation of Black Creatives in Speculative Fiction. Kindred is a co-host of Just Keep Writing, a podcast by writers, for writers, to keep you writing. Find LP Kindred at linktr.ee/lpkindred.
