On “The Long Way Home” | 2023-11-21
An amalgamation of my most terrifying nightmares and my worst experiences. I leave it to the reader to speculate on which is which. It really hurt to write, but in a good way, like tearing off a band aid. Maybe this process can dispel the nightmares and help me let go of these painful memories and fears. When I started out with this story I had only a couple plot points mapped out in my mind, but it was shockingly easy to find more and more. The most terrifying place on earth is inside a bus.
