I turned in my manuscript y'all. It's done! (at least, until I get my editor's feedback…) In the interim I will briefly obsess over the next thing.

The Close Read: Missing in Memoir
at Homo Vitruvius, on Substack
What if something seems missing from the memoir? What if some things don't make sense?

In proof that I'm working too hard, I missed the publication of my creative nonfiction piece "Swagger" in the August 2023 issue of The Memoirist Quarterly! The work involves one of those cheesy Pocono honeymoon resorts with the heart-shaped beds, a date (in my pre-married days) with an old friend, and my suspicion that I might be about to be kidnapped or murdered.

At Homo Vitruvius on Substack: "Code Talkers"
"Navajo custom directs one to keep a distance from the dead, in order to avoid being haunted by their spirits. On Iwo Jima, King walked through landscapes littered with the bodies of thousands of dead, stepping over them. For the rest of his life, Vicki believes, the memory of those dead haunted him."

An almost entirely true story! A bit of creative nonfiction.

I'm very proud of and happy for my Aunt, whose memoir is coming out this fall; her blog entry for today has, to me, a lot of valuable "thinking out loud" about writing/creating from a personal place.

The most popular essay I ever published on my old blog, *the sad red earth*, by the thousands read, was my remembrance of old friend Antony Alda. It disappeared from the web when I let the domain registration lapse. I'm putting it back, today at Homo Vitruvius.

Given the fact that I have some new followers and also Mastodon users like tripled?? Or something wild?? Might as well post a new #Introduction!
I'm (occasionally) a #writer of #poetry and #CreativeNonfiction #CNF. I'd love to do #VoiceOvers for literally anything, and I think I'm pretty good at it! I #weightlift when I've got energy/time and someday I might get back to setting up #HomeAssistant. I post a lot of progressive #USpol, dumb memes, pretty art, #science and #space.

@sfwrtr @joehumphrey @KurtHohmann I write #creativenonfiction (#CNF) and #memoir. These haven't been used very much on this platform, so that's kind of exciting.

Logan Steiner's After Anne is "a stunning and unexpected portrait of Lucy Maud Montgomery, creator of one of literature’s most prized heroines, whose personal demons were at odds with her most enduring legacy—the irrepressible Anne of Green Gables."

My cancer, which was in my brain stem, and the treatment I got for it lessened my ability at masking my pansexuality, desire for polyamory, desire for BDSM, and my autism. I wrote an article about it:

Woot! So happy to see this #CreativeNonFiction piece published-- despite the name, this isn't horror-y or scary. I mean, it's about being hospitalized a few years ago, but it's really about the warped relationship I have with my husband. Hey, give it a read: it's free online! The link is to a PDF, BTW.

Kella Thornton writes a beautiful "letter" to Kate Chopin, 19th century American author, as she sits in the author's historic home in St. Louis, MO. There are so many themes I relate to in Kate Chopin's work, themes this writer relates to as well. I love her direct, rhetorical questions to Mme Chopin. It is a beautiful piece of writing, connected to a sense of place. And yet, it is also timeless---for all women through the ages. #KateChopin #Literature #CreativeNonfiction
