It's been a long time since I've read fiction and poetry. It's showing me dimensions of writing that I missed during my non-fiction binge. It's where my curiosity lies, and it's beyond the edge of my ability. I want to pursue these sides of writing more intentionally, so I'm starting a new project soon that's shaped around these questions:
How do you freeze your consciousness through words?
How do you immerse readers in a scene?
How do you collapse categories and explore your full range of interests?
How do you experiment with sentence construction?
How do you catch both the fish and the whale?
