BIO

Hello! My name is Lesley, and I am a writer! My entire life I have had a passion for storytelling, and in my time as an undergraduate student at the University of Maryland I refined my skills to specialize in fiction, narrative nonfiction, plays, and screenplays. As a queer individual, I aim to include proper representation for all readers through historical fiction, mythological retellings, gritty comedies, and dramatic realism. I hope to find new, exciting avenues to share both my words, and the words of others, to help mold the literary world into a more accessible and accepting space.

"Porterfield develops a story much like chocolate: lucious, sweet, and yet dark."
