Local Author Morgan Christie Launches Award-Winning Essay Collection

Boolean Logic is a collection of twelve interconnected autobiographical essays about coming to terms with the realities of race, gender, and injustice during childhood and young adulthood. Award-winning writer Morgan Christie shares her stories to broach tough subjects, levy social critiques, and relate the intimate particularities of life. Whether through sports or cultural and generational relationships, Christie’s essays outline the scope of contemporary issues through a personal lens.

“I really appreciate getting to talk about and examine sports, as I do racial and gender associated themes. There’s something compelling about speaking to the realities around us through a personal lens, an authenticity we can present as writers speaking to truth,” explains Winston-Salem resident, Morgan Christie.

Boolean Logic won the 2023 Howling Bird Press Nonfiction Prize in a national competition with more than 100 submissions. The book is already garnering rave reviews from early readers, such as:

Christie is a writer to watch, to read, and to celebrate. Every page is a triumph.” —Terry Horstman, USA Today sports media contributor and editor at the Under Review

“Morgan Christie’s tender and wise debut collection of lyric essays, Boolean Logic, is impossible to put down…This is a work of extraordinary power.” —Kathryn Savage, author of Ground Glass
