Prose
I've been holding on to a lot of pieces for a long time because I've been afraid that they won't get published if I make them live online. By making this space, I relinquish that fear. If they never get published, so what? My goal is to keep on writing and to share it without any expectations. I hope you enjoy these pieces. They are for you.
An important note: I am able to make this writing available for free because I have a full-time job with benefits that supports me and my family. Writing costs money to make, and so writers who make a living with their writing should be paid for it.
