My essay, “An Empire in Words” has been published by Strange Horizons, an online journal that I’ve been lucky enough to have my work in several times — and now in all genres!
I originally wrote “An Empire in Words” for an MFA nonfiction workshop, taught by the excellent Cathleen Miller
However, it is about a subject that is personally important to me — the Great Library of Alexandria. When I first learned about it, I used to cry because it was lost, thinking of all the works that existed and now no longer do. In the essay, I’ve tied the library to the concepts of empire and immortality.
