Emily Jace McLaughlin
Emily Jace McLaughlin is a writer of fiction, essays, and screenplays based in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Her work has appeared in The Cut, the Washington Post, VICE, Catapult, and elsewhere. She is working on a Y2K novel about girls in Hollywood who survive by enacting the stories American culture tells about them.
Courtney Kocak’s debut memoir Girl Gone Wild follows her movement within an exploitative economy as both victim and agent, reading these dynamics as mutually constitutive. By structuring her story as a series of discrete episodes, Kocak traces her shift from being captured by the camera to taking it into her own hands.
