Write The Book: Conversations on Craft
Arts:Books
An interview from 2013 with Vermont Author Kathryn Davis. We discussed her novel Duplex (Graywolf Press).
How are you sleeping? Recently I realized that I know many people who, like me, were not sleeping particularly well in 2020, and some who still are not. We could discuss this at length, but instead, let’s write about it. This week’s Write the Book Prompt is to write about sleep. Deep, happy sleep, fitful sleep, dreams, interrupted half-dreams, involuntary dozing in (Zoom) meetings, naps, medications, sleep walking, waking unexpectedly to something you can’t quite name. So much to work with, because sleep is universally vital.
Good luck with your work in the coming week, and tune in next week for another prompt or suggestion.
