Kristopher Jansma
“There were parts of the city we hadn't seen in years. They reminded us of people who had left us, and we excised them from our maps before they could spread. It's not the same, we said, it's just not the same. It's not like it was, before. We never said before what, but it was understood.”
Kristopher Jansma, Why We Came to the City

Steven Magee
“Crazy neighbor? Time to move!”
