This story’s first line came to me during a free write and remained unchanged throughout revision. I set out to write a story about a dragon falling in love with a human, but the thing I’m most proud of is the way this story highlights the many forms love can take, including a love of music, a love of collecting, and a love for our community, even after that community is no longer with us. I hope the story serves as a reminder that we can’t shoulder our burdens alone; by sharing our grief, we not only lighten the load, but we also grow closer with those around us. (The other reminder is this: when in doubt, listen to The Mountain Goats.)
Interesting! Thanks, Jamie! Be sure to check out "An Equivalent Exchange" and the rest of the stories now!
