I'm a writer. It's all I really know how to do. I consider myself a success story. Because I am alive I mean, and because I think writing and books and art are the reason. As a writer, I'm not so sure I see much difference in the storylines for women and girls who enter the field. Other art is deemed confessional. Or sentimental. Or too subjective. And it is written by women. I see that straight white men are published in prestigious venues more often than women. I write my heart out. I do. For better or worse. I write my heart out because my heart, well, she was almost taken from me. Every year of my life until now. It's something I can do. A verb. Something that has at least a chance of interrupting another girl or boy's story with other options. Write. Make art. Find others. It's a choice.
