Legacy
A Memoir of SortsThis retired English teacher decides to begin a podcast production studio, but a small retirement gift creates an enigma, one which challenges my idea of creating and composing, of memory and meaning, of what difference anything I do might really make.
A series of mini episodes, part memoir, part supernatural fiction, part literary theory, most surreal.
