Mandy Brownholtz
“Here she began to question the validity of her memory, the way it struggled to reveal exact phrases and turns of syntax...It was only now that she examined these frayed edges, realizing that moments exist in limbo as they occur, as of yet unable to be determined as insignificant or definitive. Perhaps some of these moments were more definitive than others”
Mandy Brownholtz, Rotten

Shannen Greene
“Like an unanswered question: a blank space under a burning, thought-provoking question---an absence of context. An absence of explanation. An absence of knowledge---an absence of understanding.”
Shannen Greene, Similitude
