Abstract
When I began writing this collection, it started off as a short story collection. As I continued to work with memory and recreation / re-vision, my stories began taking the shape of non-fiction. I have decided to include two non-fiction pieces, bookending the fictional stories. I have found something in my thesis, this collection of stories that crosses boundaries and often intersect with each other, speaking from different perspectives. So what you have is a collection of stories, blurring genres, striving for new boundaries. These stories explore and meditate on relationships, the costs of love and loving, loss, sexuality, and identity—my experiences, spanning the human experience.
