Tara Caimi
When I lived in Utah with the dog musher, it repeatedly occurred to me that the life we led was outside the norm. I found myself wishing I had a video camera because I thought it would make a fantastic documentary (not that I had the skill or knowledge to do that, but it's a thought I had at the time)--following the musher as he built a dog sledding team from scratch. Fast forward five years later and I'm living back east, immersed in my first residency in the creative writing program at Wilkes University. During that residency, the program director informed my cohort that our theses would be full-length manuscripts we'd have one semester to complete. By that time I'd been diagnosed with celiac disease and had started on the path toward my own dream. The idea for Mush just clicked.
