Overview
"I do not believe that it is creatively fruitful for a writer to summarize, explain, or even really comment much on their work before anyone gets a chance to read it. Doing so does not simply seem to take a lot of the joy out of the reading process, but it also seems rather antithetical to what makes experiencing art and fiction so special. This is to say, that telling you what these stories are about, or what I was trying to do while writing them, seems, in some central way, to intrude on the intellectual and interpretive space necessary for anyone to sincerely enjoy anything. So I won't. All I will say is that these stories were labored over and cared for very much and that it means quite a lot to me that you are taking the time to read them. Thank you. Thank you so much." -- Abstract
