You have to be aware what the consequences are of the approach you take.

I don't consider genre while writing.

I want my voice to be consistent no matter if it's an original or a translation.

I've always been fascinated by the concept of time.

Time is built entirely on consensus: humans decide that they have linear time, so they do.

What does seem to be a constant is that I write more emotional stories the older I get. I think a lot of that has to do with growing up in a patriarchal structure where unemotional intellect (male) is taken more seriously than delving into emotions (female), and gradually freeing myself from those expectations.

I'm just being honest about the fact that a second language won't resonate with you like the first does.
