Digital media allowed me to create a global presence while trying to develop one-on-one relationships with readers. I’ve always loved photography which lends itself to creating multimedia posts and experimenting. There’s an immediacy of feedback, whether teasing out characters or plots, or as a literary citizen supporting other writers, or engaging with the public at large by commenting on current events. The challenge is finding a balance between wanting to participate and carving out enough time for generative work. There’s a fluidity in the zeitgeist of digital media that allows me to reach people all over the world that I never would have been able to in my local city alone.
