WIT TEA

The Only Thing Holding Back My Writing is That There are Other Writers, and They’re Better Than Me

By MICHAEL FALK

Think about it: if I had been born with money, talent, empathy, powers of observation, and discipline, I’d be much better at writing

The Offing

Nothing of him that doth fade,
But doth suffer a sea-change
Into something rich and strange.
