About Paper:
While I have the privilege of being in the Kidd Creative Writing Workshops for short fiction, I decided to challenge myself by using unfamiliar writing techniques like nonlinear structure and different points of view, and by exploring diverse subject matter. This piece is my biggest challenge so far. When writing, I start with a pen and paper-in this case, it was over a few weeks and scattered in various notebooks-then transcribe it onto the computer. Next, I print it, read it aloud, and revise revise revise. This story was influenced by my best friend of twelve-years and how our relationship might look after being apart during college. Writing this story has been a way to process the joy of our reunion, but also the fear of its inevitable changes.
