Come on in, the water’s fine.

My name is Anya Richkind and I can’t be put into words, but they’re all I’ve got and I love them. I’ve written all my life. I went to Yale for college where I was a Humanities major (yes that’s a major). I got an MFA in Playwriting from Brooklyn College. I’m a Pisces, an eldest daughter, a gay girl, a late-blooming reality TV stan. I grew up in San Francisco with my mom, my dad, my brother, and our fish Nick and Nan until Nick and Nan died. We had a funeral for them in the backyard. Nowadays, I live in Brooklyn with my wife Jess and our two cats, Buckett and Tubbs.

If you’ve made it this far, what are you waiting for?

I live in Brooklyn with my wife and our two cats; in my writing, I unravel big questions through introspection, literature, philosophy, and whatever the fuck else I think of.
