Lynne Guey

the product of immigrant strife and bourgeois achievement. i seek ataraxia; stories warrant my devotion.

If I were to be a writer…

I’d follow the philosophy of Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat Pray Love:

“I created my own post-graduate writing program, which entailed several years spent traveling around the country and world, taking jobs at bars and restaurants and ranches, listening to how people spoke, collecting experiences and writing constantly. My life probably looked disordered to observers (not that anyone was observing it that closely) but my travels were a very deliberate effort to learn as much as I could about life, expressly so that I could write about it.”
