About

Fall Girls is an independent publication launched in November 2025 by Ryan-Ashley Anderson as a sort of cross between old-school diary and research repository. That means she will both share citational quotes and archival findings, and wax poetic about them.

This all started with a thesis project, and what it grew into a book project she decided it was no fun hiding away all the juicy research (and proceeding confessional rants) that sprung from it.

Subscriptions are free, and signing up tells me that people want to see more of my work and that compels her to (shocker!) make more work! So please sign up if you’re into this vibe, and reach out if you want to work together on something. Thank you!

Anderson takes an autoethnographic approach, excavating her personal narrative to explore ideas of temporality, grief, dislocation, and precarity within the context of our current cultural situation. Anderson is currently writing a memoir, a book about ‘90s female celebrities and tabloid culture, and pursuing dual masters degrees.

Anderson’s professional background is in arts administration, business development (growing company departments and individual artist businesses), instructional design (class series, tutorials, and kits, and on-air), and creative direction. She is a long-time craft educator and former gallerist.
