Interview Elsa

All my life, creativity has played an enormous part - as a child I imagined my way through story after story, and also wrote stories of my own. I was 12 when I wrote my first film script.

The forms of creativity I've been most drawn to have changed. Once I imagined I'd become a novelist - but the novels did not come.

Thinking has been another favorite form of creativity - though that came later. But I've come to believe that thinking creatively is one of the highest forms of creativity.

Then one day, I woke up with things I called "songs" in my head. Words to go with music - but not the traditional song structure (verse, chorus, bridge). The "songs" expressed a moment, a feeling. I had found what has become maybe my strongest creative home. More and more kept pouring out. Instead of start-stop creativity, it was ongoing. What a pleasure, and also a puzzle.

How to get all this out into the world? That's been, in fact, my lifelong puzzle, conundrum, trouble, hardship, heartache. Who wants what I have to offer? How can I find those people, reach those people.

That's one of the big reasons for this site.

Along the way the writing continued. Explorations of the meaning of home. A preteen novel. The Sexe-Tetes. And more.

A dozen years ago,
I began to wake up
with word pieces -
words music, spoken word, songs -
in my head.
Escape velocity.
Echo of the echo.
Tank almost empty.
Can't cross the gap.
Welcome into my world.
