Abstract

“Tramp Stamp & Other Stories” comes from writing fiction centered around families and relationships. Some of these stories explore life in the wake of tragedy, while others are picking up the pieces after their relationship dynamic has shifted. There is humor and absurdity mixed in with rage and sadness. I think the main characters are all women at a crossroads in their lives. How far does being a “good” wife, girlfriend, or sister get you?
