Burner Kids
One aspect of writing that I love is the opportunity to put yourself in other people’s shoes (or huge furry boots covered in dust) and consider life from a path (or desert trail) that you’d never traverse yourself.
I really enjoyed researching and writing the piece on The Bold Italic that is live today: Who Brings Their Kids to Burning Man? I tried to strike the right balance of humor, earnestness, and factual information.
It really came together because I had some great sources, and I’m grateful that they let me use their stories and image to create a platform for folks to discuss this hot-button issue within the Burner community.
