The Only Way Out Is Through: Or a Bit of the Story Behind Time Travel in a Closet
The following is a slightly edited and expanded version of the introduction written for my thesis while studying in Ashland University’s MFA program.

This is also intended as an update since my original #MyWritingProcess post, which I wrote prior to both beginning my MFA studies and my transition.
