why I write
Writing fiction is a peculiar sort of madness. You strive to create something that you alone can see
because it is your life’s obsession. Nothing is ever finished. I don’t know when I will achieve the
novel I’ve been searching for. It’s in the pages somewhere, hidden. In my mind I already see the
critics’ words, the jacket copy, the final analysis. . . but before me is something far less than what I’d
hoped for.
One of my high school English teachers once told me that great writing is never finished, but simply
abandoned by the author. The process of abandonment is such a hard one. “It isn’t ready,” I'd keep
telling myself, fearing what reaction I’d get. You have to be brave to be a writer. I reached this
epiphany after a long and very debilitating bout of writer's block. Now I finally feel brave enough to
share my writing again, and I have made it available online.
read samples of my work
To see samples of my writing, visit my blog Tragedienne. The title of my blog is a French word that is
used in the theater to describe an actress who specializes in tragedies. A tragedienne is the opposite
of a comedienne, you could say. I often find myself exploring tragic themes in my writing, and so the
title fits. From poetry to journal entries to fiction, Tragedienne features excerpts of my strongest
pieces of writing.
