IF IT WERE DRAWN by Jessica Reed 31/12/2022

This is a fairly representational, short piece of the prose book I'm working on. The illustration the editor chose was very apt! Published by AZURE: A Journal of Literary Thought.

"Now picture the illustrator of a comic, charged to render the wonder of physics thought experiments on the page. How might she show that it is remarkable that it works? That it is remarkable that two thinkers can not only share images but compare imaginations?"

Eros 1.0: The Frictionless Plane 03/06/2022

In 2017, I took my first steps toward a prose project involving physics, math, and the human mind. Chicago Review recently decided to publish a couple of the vignettes online—very cool of them. Here are
“Eros 1.0: The Frictionless Plane”
and “Subtraction.”

Eros 1.0: The Frictionless Plane by Jessica Reed

Happy to appear again in my beloved lit mag, Conjunctions. Brad Morrow took a chance on this arrow poem of mine about fear. (And Rick Moody, who appears right after this, wrote to tell me he’ll be teaching this poem in the fall for a class on graphic/literary arts!)
My other poem in here is (fittingly) about viruses—the Cave of Crystals in Mexico, which was cut off from evolution of life on earth for millions of years, but they found friggin’ viruses in the water!!
