Knowing you from our conversations on Texas, drugs, and change... I really appreciate this. Thank you.

Loved this one. There's something so bittersweet about loving a place while knowing your time there is coming to an end. It made me think of saying goodbye not only to a city, but to a version of yourself. <3

Friction Burn's avatar

I love the way you put that, especially knowing your "let's get naked" motto. I think that's exactly what I was trying to understand while writing it. Sometimes you're grieving a place and a version of yourself at the same time, and it's hard to tell where one ends and the other begins. Thank you for reading it so thoughtfully Gaia <333

Your style is so unique. It's hard to put into words, it's like a mashup between Bukowski, Kerouac & musically The Red House Painters come to mind. Always such a treat to read your work!

Friction Burn's avatar

Wow, thank you. Those are some incredible comparisons and I feel humbled. I think what draws me to all of them is how atmosphere can become part of the story, so that means a lot to hear <3

Please send me something new of yours. Missing your voice.

I feel like I'm in a thriller movie whenever I read this stuff, it's seriously amazing

Friction Burn's avatar

Hahahhah thank you!! Honestly, if my essays feel a little like psychological thrillers, I think I'm doing something right. You are the best

Ethan Obiejemba's avatar
