Out of all the blogs I’m reading (all 88 of them), one of the ones that as of late I’m enjoying the most is Zoe Strauss’ blog. I think this is for a combination of reasons. Besides really enjoying her work, I get to read about the process she goes through editing and preparing for the publication of her book, America. I like reading about the tough editing decisions she makes and thinking about applying that kind of decision-making to my own work. And then all of the issues that are tangled up in that book, the themes and feelings, are also reflected in her reactions to what’s happening in the electoral campaigns… it’s a combination of the personal, the artistic, the political. And the entries don’t feel contrived or overthought, just from the heart.
Check out her blog, her website, and her wikipedia page.
Just one of the images that has me completely transfixed:
