In Memory of Exoskeletons gives readers poetry that captures the horrors and magic of everyday life, especially in the lives of women. The speakers are witches and maidens, hags and mourners, survivors and wives slowly turning to stone. Many of these poems explore the darker side of domesticity and the strength it takes to love through loss, but there are pinpricks of light, too—a celebration of dogs, the perfection of a single blueberry, and the way a brand-new baby can tip the world upside down. Step into these pages; sit with Cuthbert in the twilight. She'll hold your hand, then walk you out.

In Memory of Exoskeletons won the 2024 Imadjinn Award for Best Poetry Collection and made the Horror Writers Association's 2024 Recommended Reading List. The poems "Bloodthirsty" and "Still Love," which are part of the collection, were nominated for the Pushcart Prize. "Still Love" was also nominated for a Best of the Net Award.
