She is the author of Exit Wounds, EARTH IS FULL; GO BACK HOME, and peeling the yellow wallpaper, and is the founder and manager of Capta Lucem, her own photography and art business which focuses heavily on typewriter and word based art and appears in-person at pop-up events and markets around Philadelphia.

Monica plans to someday own a library and retire to a remote lighthouse in Maine, but has rather extensive plans to change the world first. She believes in the inherent magic of the world around her, and is eternally tied to the rural Midwestern town where she grew up.
