Creative Nonfiction

Fifteen lives. Fifteen crossings. Fifteen answers to the question: what does it cost to move? *Voices in Motion * is a collection of interconnected stories drawn from a decade of interviews with actual migrants — an Ecuadorian night janitor who studies law between shifts; a Colombian engineer in Silicon Valley whose visa is a leash; a DACA recipient who has never seen the country she is supposed to belong to; a trafficking survivor who rebuilt herself in the language of her captors; a man who died in ICE detention, told through the eyes of those who loved him. Each story stands alone.

(We in fact met by happy accident.) He added that my life was and is typical, or perhaps a tad off the norm. Surely he's correct in that we all benefit from fortuitous events, but I think he's incorrect in saying that such events in my life are typical or normal.
