  • Kristen Coates
    May 20 2025

    I reached out to Kristen Coates - a really dope fan of everyone on twitter. I've seen them enjoying and endorsing and complimenting most indie writers over there. Reminded me of myself - just a fan enjoying people's work.

    They're a dope person. They used to run their own magazine before being cancelled.
