| Summary | This project finds the liminality that exist between our reality and the magic that can be seen through a fabulist lens. I use my Appalachian upbringing to establish a setting and the stories that I grew up with to bring new meaning to my own experiences. Using the stories of cryptids and magic that I saw during my own childhood, I provide insights that I have connected through the years by using fabulism and lyrical prose. The integration of heavy themes such as trauma and disease that I've witnessed from my adulthood have further stressed the importance of liminality within this collection. These stories are connected through their setting in Appalachia, specifically the mountains North Carolina and West Virigina. |
