This week, Alli and KL! become tangled in the net of narrative as we fish for a coherent story. We use an old photograph as our jumping off point to discuss creativity, working with your muse, the ethics of Pygmalion, and the horror of a group of mermaid statues sharing a hive mind in your workshop.
Digressions include: asking a mermaid to marry you, every 80s movie, how very wet Florida is, internalized misogyny, and the types of mermaid statues we'd like to see.
