Molly Lurie-Marino

1 post
Molly Lurie-Marino is a twenty-something eternal student who questions the practicality of decisions rather than making them. With a background primarily in science, she often wonders why we can't all get along, then finds the answer in an experiment disproving the existence of organic altruism. Her writing has been in Up the Staircase Quarterly, DOGZPLOT, PANK, Metazen, Chronogram, and others. She writes when she should be doing everything else, but can't, and likes to extend moments with uncomfortably long couplets. Behavior is primitive--words get us through the day.

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.
