Léna (me): Lit, as in literature, Lit, as in light, Lit, as in a little kooky: Life. I'll blog about the publication process, writing, teaching creative writing to kids, what I'm reading, my grandmother: Newbery Award winner Madeleine L'Engle, and yes, anything to do with the word, LIT.
1. Playfully Human

She has always felt a bit alien.
Other.

A child isolating herself,  feeling like an outsider.
Not knowing
Where she ends and the other begins
Not knowing.

Still: pockets of presence
Feel like a present
(A cliché is nothing but a repeated truth.)

The tender beauty of humanity.

How do they do it?

Words, sentences, paragraphs
Pen to paper.

Write me.
Write ME.

Our souls inhabit these houses

The house the child struggles to care for,

Then growing into knowing she is more than that
Place she calls home.

Alien, but not alone,
Playfully human.
