Madeline Anthony
Madeline has a soft spot for honest literature that unpacks what it means to be human. She is a fiction writer who gladly trades time in the real world for imagined realities. Born and raised in rural upstate New York, Madeline now lives in Brooklyn, where she can be found getting lost in existential thought loops, painting, and unapologetically advancing the gay agenda. Her TikTok is @gaygirlonline.
