Q&A

What was your inspiration for this piece?

A series of earthquakes, topped with working at a restaurant for too long, propelled me to scratch out this piece.

What is the best piece of writing advice you have received?

Always have a pen and paper ready.

- Richard A Perez Jr, “earthquake weather”

“When the unit came up for sale three years ago, she’d bought it. A dingbat, scratchy stucco exterior and wide rectangular profile with impossible skinny stiletto posts as support, perched on a steep hill. All upper and no lower, like a linebacker in a minidress.”

This Angela Florunoy () quote from THE WILDERNESS evokes and cover artist George Townley’s (.townley) “Dingbat House in Mar Vista” from our “POP!” issue. Check out George’s work in Expo: tinyurl.com/ExpoTownley AND on view this weekend’s : A Decade of Art: tinyurl.com/ExpoPresentsArt10, and get Angela’s book in our Bookshop: tinyurl.com/ExpoBookshop!

Vol. V: “Act/Break” challenges new entry points into storytelling, with pieces meticulously put together to create a whole from many parts. They dip into a moment, a day, or even years, and form an experience that leaves their characters changed. We feel them build, break, splinter, and reconnect. The beginning, the end, and the space in between—that exploration is what we wanted, and it is most certainly what we got.
