Speaking of Non-Sequiturs
Ideas drive my work. The goal of my craft is to draft stories that entertain while serving as a testing ground for ideas. Writing stirs our emotions and brings us the most joy when the language challenges us to think through the broadest spectrum of possibility.
In Speaking of Non-Sequiturs, I provide a brief context of why I’m thinking about a certain topic, the ideas that came to mind, and the questions those ideas raised. I hope you enjoy my process, see how it shapes my fiction, and share a few thoughts of your own. I look forward to hearing from you.
