Everything's on the line, but the Supreme Court is off the rails. June 2022. The smell of lawyers hangs in the air as half the country scrambles to salvage their body parts from the latest deadly crash at the intersection of law and gender.

Everything's on the line, but the Supreme Court is off the rails. June 2022. The smell of lawyers hangs in the air as half the country scrambles to salvage their body parts from the latest deadly crash at the intersection of law and gender. Somewhere off in the distance, the dogs of politics bark. Armed only with an alienated laptop and an existential crisis, a down-on-her-luck writer spins through a kaleidoscope of responses about the raw loss of her reproductive rights. Scenarios surreal to sarcastic unfold, yet never seem too far from reality. By turns thoughtful, cynical, and darkly comedic, current events get thrown into the creative blender in an unconventional collection of short-form pieces. Religion, the housing market, healthcare, Big Tech, paychecks; they all meet at the intersection of rage, reflection, and female roles. In and beyond the lines of the abortion debate, interlinking puzzle pieces of essays and verse question more than one American premise. Somewhere along the way, history meets her own story. Enter the maze of genuine grief, alternate worlds, and twisted humor of a post-Roe woman on the edge. Please note: This content is intended for adults only. It features R-rated language and themes that may be upsetting for some readers. Discretion is advised.

Autorenporträt
Amy A. DeCew has done a few different things with her life but finds them all completely irrelevant to actually making a living. Between fighting for decades for medical care she still can't get and researching how to escape the United States, she's busy going rogue in a self-published context while waging a campaign against the elimination of the Oxford comma. You can generally find her only if you hang out in international hostels because often enough, she doesn't even know what country she's in anymore. And she's probably not going to tell you, either, if all you're offering her is minimum wage.The saucy author's backpages include stints in academic and research work, the fashion industry, and the eternal nonexistence of freelance writing. She's also appeared on stage and screen, often in disguise, and always in "the short role". If she has to launch one more career/side hustle/part-time gig, she would like your expert crowdsourced input and/or a baseball bat to the head. Then again, maybe we'd all just like better policymaking. Should you wish to find this Amy character, it's best to visit her website at www.amydecew.online where you can discover more information about her life and work.
