Abstract
The following work is my Senior Individualized Project, the product
of four months of creative writing. I entitled this collection The
Heart Still Beats because I felt that each story was, on some level,
about survival--the ability of the human voice to persist, through
difficult times and under difficult circumstances. My reaction to this
work, as I flip through it, is mixed. I find myself startled and
pleased at images and phrases that still work for me and I find
myself chagrined at sections with which I am still unsatisfied. I
resist the urge to take stories out and change them; I stop myself
from throwing a couple away; and I celebrate the truths I feel I have
adequately portrayed.
