LUMINA Journal’s Nonfiction Editor, Casey Haymes, sits down with author Angela Palm to discuss the craft of memoir and essay: the power and pitfalls of accessing memory as a part of writing about trauma, how to experiment with time, and what the use of an exclamation point! can say about our collective mental health. Palm also shares an excerpt from new work that is forthcoming. Angela Palm wrote Riverine, A Memoir from Anywhere But Here, winner of the Graywolf Press Nonfiction Prize and a Kirkus Best Book. Her work has been published in Tin House, Long Reads. Ecotone, Creative Nonfiction, and elsewhere. She’s been a finalist for the Vermont Book Award, Indiana Emerging Author Award, and Stanford Library Soroyan International Writing Prize. For more on Palm: http://www.angipalm.com/
