But not long ago, Arkana Journal invited me to participate in their “Contributor Spotlight.” They asked me a few questions about my essay “The Trees Of Mississippi: A Strange and Bitter Crop” (featured in issue #8 of Arkana) and one about my writing influences. See the following for specifics.
--How did composing this piece leave you feeling once it was finished?
--Legacy appears as an important theme in this work. What legacy do you wish to leave the reader with this piece?
--Which authors influence your writing the most and why?
