Hi, my name is August. I’m an artist, writer, and activist from New Haven, Connecticut. I wrote a drawing book, and I’ve also written for The New York Times, The Guardian, The Free Press, and more. I was the recipient of a 2024 MacDowell fellowship.

I write a regular newsletter on Substack.

I have two books forthcoming from Vintage: a debut novel and a technocritical manifesto.

I’m represented by WME (writing) and IllustrationX (visual art).
