Work Text:
These words that I put down on the page have long been a companion. They sit with the words I take from the page and they meld worlds together into tapestries. There is escape in these words, but there is also comradery that I find hard to find elsewhere.
We aren’t alone when we read, not the way that it looks. Sharing them with others allows experiences to be opened, empathy derived and adventures taken and, honestly, is there any greater magic in all the world?
I look up into the faces before me. Here for me, and my words.
