The Epiphany 10: An Interview with Kristin Dombek
When I was a child, my favorite joke was: "Q: How do you sculpt an elephant? A: Take big piece of marble and carve away everything that doesn't look like an elephant." I'm still laughing at this one, cause that's how writing feels, except there's no stone, and you've never seen an elephant.
The Epiphany 10: An Interview with Benjamin Busch
I like a story that can be told over a fire, all of its necessary waves striking the piece of beach you can keep in sight. One where I have to go into the night wondering how the survivors moved on with what happened.
The Epiphany 10: An Interview with Amy Jo Burns
I’m definitely a chipper. I like the idea that the most perfect form of the story already exists inside a writer, and it’s her daily work to crack it open, shard by shard.
The Epiphany 10: An Interview with George Saunders
I’d like to spend a few hours in a Gogol story—but also have a way to get out when I need to—like when the giant Nose is approaching.
The Epiphany 10: An Interview with Jack Austin
I was a bartender for the last five years. People tend to think that’s pretty interesting, but after a while it just gets depressing.
An Interview with Sameer Pandya + A Story
Sameer Pandya’s story “M-O-T-H-E-R” follows an Indian-American family in California whose mother, Uma, has high ambitions for her teenage sons in their spelling bee competitions.
Stay tuned for our upcoming issue, out this December.
