Absurd worlds allow us to explore, wonder, and daydream in safety

I’m always surprised when I write about an experience that makes me feel alone, say going to meet a blind date and learning that he’d died before even meeting me, sharing that experience makes me feel connected, empowered, excited, and, at the very least, not alone. There's comfort in knowing that even if everyone else misunderstands us, my readers can appreciate and connect with the experiences I write about. My goal is to offer consolation to get through the boring, painful and ugly parts of life, with an eye towards hope, and a joyous future.
