a collection of prose, personal essays, and miscellany written throughout my undergraduate years. this was for my senior project at IDM, in an ironically very un-IDM like container. still, it felt right to express my identity as a writer — among all things we learn in IDM, storytelling almost always sits at the top. so what would be a more fitting senior project than the one that is, quite literally, a story? the playbill structure pays homage to my love of theatre, yet another brilliant medium of storytelling. features sit up front, miscellaneous oddities in the back, and acknowledgements for everyone who had to read early drafts of both me and this very personal collection.
