Mirm Hurula
Mirm Hurulais an emerging author and poet learning to write in genres they've been interested in since they were in elementary school. Mirm was named one of the top 10 collegiate poets in 2019 and 2020, by Bass/Schuler Entertainment. They received a fellowship for Martha's Vineyard's Institute for Creative Writing's Conference in Summer 2021. They’ve had multiple publications with their university's undergraduate journal, The Catalyst. Mirm incorporates brown and queer stories into every piece to give representation they craved as a young reader. They hope that their stories can uplift and center voices that haven’t seen the mainstream.
