#ScribesAndMakers 27. Do you feel your creative work leans more towards reflecting life as it is or as you would like it to be? A: Both. And a third option: a transmogrified version of how things sometimes appear. These stories are rooted in the world that is: frequently unjust, confusing, built on human frailty, prejudiced. But sometimes there is comeuppance. Sometimes characters find a possible way out — however temporary or illusionistic. That is the grace the gothic can allow.
