Learning to Experiment

I continue to explore new directions with my writing, with a specific focus on how to make text more visually engaging. Discovering writers online who layer their writing over everyday photographs, I decided to try this with scraps from an early story.

This image was from a road trip in 2021, where I spent time in a landscape being used for a story. In it, a man travels to the land of his childhood while wrestling with the commitment of fatherhood.

As I’m now redrafting the story, it seemed appropriate to pair a sentence from it with an image of the scenery that inspired it.
