the opposite of silence : a new essay up on Chelene Knight's blog,

I've a new short essay up on Vancouver writer and editor Chelene Knight's #LearnWritingEssentials blog (see her introduction for the series here), of which my short essay, "the opposite of silence," is but a small part (although if you're interested in further essays by me, check out the links on my author site). She's already posted essays and other pieces by Tamara Jong, Jagtar Kaur Atwal, Shih-Shin Lee, Nailah King and Isabella Wang (with a few more in the queue to appear this month). Why not check out what she's been doing?
