From Creative Writing To a Self’s Liberation: A Monologue of a Struggling Writer

Authors

Ethan Trinh, Georgia State UniversityFollow

Abstract

The pressure of being alone in a new country and of surviving in a competitive academia has scared me to death. I cannot find any better way to heal me other than writing. Writing helps me make sense of the worlds and come closer to my true self. This piece is journeying from my own struggles of a Vietnamese, queer, immigrant teacher to accept who I am as a writer. In addition, writing this piece helps me get closer to decademizing academic writing in higher education.
