On suicide and the writing life. "Downbound Train" is at the NAILED.

There is also the death of Ned Vizzini, the need for affirmation, Lost in Space, and appreciations to whole NAILED crew for making it so. Excerpt? Word.

"What does it feel like before you step off of a ledge? What is that moment like? Do you teeter or plunge? Is it a culmination of steps, moments of constant despair and pain leading to that moment? Or is it impulsive, sudden and volatile, grabbed with ferocity? What does it sound like after that step? Do you feel the wind in your face? Do you wonder if in fact you can float, or fly?"
