Hello and Welcome!

Hi, I'm Briana Meade.

I'm a writer and poet drawn to the complicated, beautiful and sometimes absurd ways we all relate to one another. 

I love writing that is both lyrical and accessible. Prose that draws the reader in but also creates a liminal feeling. I'd love if reading something I wrote evoked this: like you stepped into a dream and then back out again. 

I'm most interested in ordinary life and the relationships that shape who we are and we are becoming. I'm drawn to the idea that none of us exist in a singular boundaried form. We are composites of all of the people we've ever met and most of us are wonderfully imperfect.  Messy humans. The best stories leave room for all of this. 

I live in North Carolina and am currently working on my debut novel, a story about friendship, desire and the complicated experience of being known.
