I’ve mentioned here before that one of my big projects this year is my involvement with The Vertigo Project<\/a>, which now has a webpage so the rest of you can see what we’ve been doing. Earlier today I facilitated the first creative therapy-style writing workshop through that group, and it was really lovely–and is just the tip of the iceberg on what this group is doing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Specifically, you can now read all the new work they’ve commissioned<\/a> from me! Friends, it’s a lot. It’s journaling prompts<\/a> for people who would like to use writing to process some of their own vertigo experiences. But also it’s the following stories and poems:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Advice for Wormhole Travelers<\/a> (story), safe conduct through strange new worlds<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Club Planet Vertigo<\/a> (poem), this is not the dance I wanted to do<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Greetings from Innerspace<\/a> (poem), my orbits are eccentric<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Nature of Nemesis<\/a> (poem), me and Clark Kent know what’s what<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On the Way Down<\/a> (poem), falling hard<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Preparation<\/a> (poem), sometimes we’re just literal, okay<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She Wavers But She Does Not Weaken<\/a> (story), when the waves hit you even on dry land, it’s good to have someone who’s willing to swim against the current for you<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Torn Map<\/a> (story), rewriting the pieces of the former world into something new<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main page also has links to some of the other aspects of the project, which includes a nonfiction book, dance, puppetry, a podcast with a physical therapist, and more. Please feel welcome to explore it all.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
