“Esmé writes about her life, the art of craft and her disabilities with poetic candor and honesty. I've been a fan of her writing for a long time, and 'The Unexpected Shape' acts as an informal education and mentorship for emerging disabled writers like myself. She also creates bird portraits that help break up my Substack feed in a whimsical and welcomed manner. ”
