My likeness appears alongside a weekly interview called “Queery” in this week’s Washington Blade:

Washington is known as a city of transplants, and CHARLES JENSEN is one of the capital’s newbies. Moving from the greater Phoenix area about two weeks ago, Jensen is now the director of the Writer’s Center in Bethesda, Md., which conducts hundreds of workshops on writing each year, hosts literary events and provides support for local writers. He moved to Arizona from Minnesota to get his dual graduate degree in creative writing and non-profit management at Arizona State University. Jensen met his boyfriend of a year there at a bar and, although they’re now separated by thousands of miles, Jensen did bring his miniature Schnauzer, Arden, to his new home in Silver Spring.
