MOB THE SKY

NitaJade, an Affrilachian Poet and self-proclaimed weirdo, hails from Asheville, NC. They earned their B.A. from Berea College (2019) and their MFA in Creative Writing: Poetry from the University of Kentucky (2022). They insist that their late O.G. Queen's sweet potato pie epitomizes love, and they aspire to embody the aesthetics of sloths and narwhals (slarwhals, if you please). They laugh loudly and stubbornly. NitaJade's debut poetry collection, Mob the Sky, is expected to be released in 2027 by Loblolly Press.
