Milo Writes Milo Wright

Milo/Allgera Wright was a poet, story teller, and artist, who was a constant figure in the Arts District and arts community of Winston-Salem, North Carolina. As a self-described, "Androgynous, chronically ill, disabled, neuro-diverse, rainbow star, artist, and book eater," they approached life with a fierceness that allowed them to tackle the challenges. Words were their first and most loyal friend. Milo spent their life in Winston-Salem, and in March 2016, at age 24, they passed away unexpectedly. This intimate collection contains their insights into balancing health, expectations, fashion, culture, connections, rejections, and basic survival with humor, hope, and resilience.
