And this happened at my job! It was so wonderful to hear #vietthanhnguyen read. He also conducted a master fiction writing class for students. He’s such a generous, honest, intelligent, and humble writer. #therefugees #pultizerprize

She Makes the Sound the Sea Makes

"We never talked much those days, not because we didn't have much to say, but because there might be too much to say and if you once started you would upset the beautiful and perilous equilibrium that we had achieved. It was as though we each sat on the end of a see-saw, beautifully balanced, but not in any tidy little play-yard but over God knows what blackness on a see-saw that God had rigged up for us kiddies." –Robert Penn Warren, All the King's Men
