"Do It With Mourning: The Merits of Making a Mess"
My latest article is up at Specter Literary Magazine. As you might have guessed, it’s about emotional instability and writing. Oh, and feeeeelings.
“I say it’s time to take back your damn trout. Look at that trout from every angle. Let the sun hit it and turn it a million shades into a blinding rainbow. Love every single second of it. Of course, not every feeling is exciting and thrilling to revel in (again, my hellish week comes to mind). But it is important – always, always important – to let yourself unravel, to let yourself go, to allow the full depth of the experience to hit you. Some people don’t understand why I’m so “pro-feeling.” Others call me a hippie. Regardless, I think it makes me a more well-rounded human being, and being a more well-rounded human being helps me to be a better writer.”
