Fidelitoria: Fixed or Fluxed navigates interior landscapes, personal cosmology, and the manner in which language shapes our being and being shapes our language via acts of séance, tarot, alchemical interpretation, and psychoanalysis. These are poems written in the wild swing of the scrying stone, poems that ask how to create an identity in the way of perpetual change, constant self-interrogation, and ever shifting psychogeography. What does it mean to live in the orb of uncertainty? To be neither here nor there, neither fixed nor fluxed?

Candice Wuehle is the author of the novel MONARCH (Soft Skull, forthcoming) as well as three collections of poetry, including FIDELITORIA: fixed or fluxed (11:11, 2021), Death Industrial Complex (Action Books, 2020) and BOUND (Inside the Castle Press, 2018). She has also written several chapbooks, including VIBE CHECK (Garden-door Press, 2018), EARTH*AIR*FIRE*WATER* THER (Grey Books Press, 2015) and cursewords: a guide in 19 steps for aspiring transmographs (Dancing Girl Press, 2014). Her work can be found in The Iowa Review, Best American Experimental Writing 2020, Black Warrior Review, Tarpaulin Sky, The Volta, The Colorado Review, SPORK, and The New Orleans Review.

​

Candice holds an MA in literature from the University of Minnesota as well as an MFA in poetry from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. She recently earned a doctorate in Creative Writing at The University of Kansas, where she was the recipient of a Chancellor's Fellowship. Her studies focus on the relationship between trauma, memory and the occult.
