- Inner Moonlight: Christine Suggs
Inner Moonlight is the monthly poetry reading series for the Wild Detectives in Dallas. The in-person show is the second Wednesday of every month in the Wild Detectives backyard. We love our podcast fans, so we release recordings of the live performances every month for y'all! On 9/13/23, we featured graphic novelist Christine Suggs!
Christine Suggs is a comic artist and designer living in Dallas, TX with their wonderful partner, dog, and cat. Their debut book, ¡AY MIJA! is a YA graphic novel about spending their summers in Mexico as a teen and was released in spring 2023 from Little Brown Young Readers. Christine’s work explores the intersection of their identities, namely being a queer, fat, Latinx feminist who loves all things cute. Bonus facts: their day job is in app design, they are an avid Dungeons & Dragons player, and they’re quite obsessed with cats.

37 min - Inner Moonlight: Afeefah Khazi-Syed
Inner Moonlight is the monthly poetry reading series for the Wild Detectives in Dallas. The in-person show is the second Wednesday of every month in the Wild Detectives backyard. We love our podcast fans, so we release recordings of the live performances every month for y'all! On 8/9/23, we featured poet Afeefah Khazi-Syed.
Afeefah Khazi-Syed was born and raised in the DFW metroplex but has always called two places home: the suburbs of Texas and her grandparents’ homes in Southern India. Medical student at UT Southwestern by day, and writer by night – she published her first poetry collection Our Ancestors Did Not Breathe This Air in 2022. Written with her college friends, this anthology is a celebration of homeland, family and identity. Afeefah attributes her love for writing and storytelling to her grandparents’ bedtime stories and the many writing mentors she has found throughout her life, from high school English teachers to other writers of color. When she’s not studying or writing, Afeefah is out exploring all the great eateries and coffee shops Dallas has to offer.Presented by The Writer's Garret https://writersgarret.org/www.logencure.com/innermoonlight
