Student Profiles: Kate Kimball
I
am a short story fiction writer and once in a while ... a poet, so it is safe
to say that my interests are in the creative work. I am interested
in the use of academic writing and language in defining and redefining characters,
relationships, and stories on the whole, thus creating something that is innovative
and transient to stereotypes of experimental fiction. I am also fascinated
by non-fiction, especially memoirs, and their juxtaposition to creative work. So
much of the ‘human experience’ is defined by how we think and
internalize what is happening around/to us, and writing is a wonderful tool
to bring those internal experiences to the external, contrasting fiction and
non-fiction and challenging us to question what is real.
