From 2015: My Apologies
.
I wrote this in 2015:
"Guilt is conservative. We are all implicated in more ways than we will ever know but shouldn’t feel guilty. We should be angry, must become open to an anger that experiences possibilities everywhere, that opens towards genuinely other ways of seeing our predicament and where it might first or most crack."
From this novel I started but couldn't finish: My Apologies

Lilly Dancyger Quote
.
"I always tell my writing students not to try to wrap things up in a neat little bow when they’re actually complicated and unresolved. That the lack of closure can be a better ending than manufactured closure that’s not genuine. The parts of the story that don’t seem to fit together can often be where the real story is. I encourage them to look for those spots of friction and write into the complexity. That’s where the good stuff is."

The fact that it's Macklemore who's bringing the protest music wasn't on my bingo card: HIND’S HALL.
