"It is a scary thing to put work into the world that cannot be edited once it's printed, but there is also a beauty in honoring that thing you wrote that one time. There will be other books and other stories, but this one cobbles together youth, yearning, and a little bit of how I got this far. This collection of writing honors the imperfect and the impermanent, the art of figuring it out. Think of this as a few travel notes, some art by the fantastic @eemaart, and a love story of two humans who were lucky enough to land on the spinning marble, in the same place, at the same time. Writing was my first love, but our love is the story, our best work, and my sustenance." - Preface, Sustenance
