So, I write a newsletter in which I publish a short story once a month. Last Saturday I sent out a new story, and it was interesting to see people so split on how it made them feel. Some people thought it was beautiful, and others sent me messages to ask if I was okay and if I needed someone to talk to. Creative expression is funny like that.
In my writing, I am drawn to sadder stories because I feel most comfortable digging into them for moments of wonder and beauty. A life doesn’t have to be beautiful for there to be great beauty in it, you know?
Anyway, a friend of mine listened to this track before I uploaded it and she said, “I like that your music is gentle. It’s very different to your writing.”
I guess it’s just interesting to me to think that the medium sometimes dictates a particular kind of mood, feeling, and expression.
Oh, and if you feel like checking out the story in question, you can do so here: (it's issue #26)
