Thoughts on writing...
If I choose to write, then I choose to write literature that connects across cultures; stories that blend the past into our present and show our interconnectedness with our Lakota ancestors. I want to show our strength and the beauty of our culture via humor and language. But - I would also like to explore the uncomfortable truth of contemporary Native American Society.
Native American literature is too often exemplified and exhaulted as historical tales. I want my voice to speak from the present - to bring Natives into the future with everyone else; to honor and value our lives in our common experience.
