Eiren Caffall is a musician and writer living in Chicago. She writes songs, fiction, and essays about personal loss, global climate change, and the wisdom that comes whether we like it or not. She makes music under her own name, and has produced four albums. Her latest release is titled "Slipping the Holdfast." Her writing has appeared on The Manifest Station, Tikkun Daily, The Civil Twilight Project, The Time After, and at her website at eirencaffall.com. She is currently at work on her fifth album and first novel. She lives with her son Dexter, and they spend most of their time raising kittens and collecting fossils.

The Rumpus publishes original fiction, poetry, literary humor writing, comics, essays, book reviews, and interviews with authors and artists of all kinds. Our mostly volunteer-run magazine strives to be a platform for risk-taking voices and writing that might not find a home elsewhere. We lift up new voices alongside those of more established writers our readers may already know and love. We want to bring new perspectives into the conversation that will make us all look deeper.
