- From "Nesting Doll" by Deborah Kahan Kolb
Fiction,
Field Notes,
These books need not stand for anything in particular, but they always touch down somewhere deep: taking gentle care to remind me that humanity is complex and entertainment is not simply a distraction, but the measure of what we have come to value.
Field Notes,
I have no doubt that some artists really do create spontaneously. That is not me. And that is not most writers I know.
Field Notes,
I didn’t come to writing school to pursue a topic, but to pursue writing, as a craft. From one sentence, I wanted to build the next. I came here to dress myself up in literature. If words were my bones, their cadence my muscle, my body’s movement would be voice, pure voice (okay, my voice).
