@amy.klobuchar.com nice name, bad vote.

-Alexander Chee quote

No kidding, @crystalndunivant.bsky.social. He’s good at putting many sentences together:)

When the writing works best, I feel like I could poke one of these words out of place and find the writer's eye there, looking through to me. All of this meets along the edge of a sentence like this on, as if the sentence is a fence, with you on one side and me on the other.

…I have only seen in my mind, all my mother and father ever did, every favorite book, until it meets and distills from you, the reader, something out of the everything it finds in you.

To write is to tell a ticket to escape, not from the truth, but into it. My job is to make something happen in a space barely larger than the span of your hand, behind your eyes, distilled out of all that I have carried, from friends, teachers, people met on planes, people…

Fascinating
