Are dreams worth pursuing? With the "great resignation" and an oversaturated attention economy, most of us find ourselves straddling more than one role or function. We have day jobs and then nurse our dreams in the moonlight. Or we smuggle time to chip away at our dreams in between work, school, and social commitments.
On the horizon, there seems to be a renewed enthusiasm to heed the call to change and attend to our dreams but how many of us can afford to dream? A room of one's own is not nearly enough to go from writer to author, not when the cost of living eats away at precious time and resources. Hear from the Epigram Books Fiction Prize 2022 winner and finalists, all of whom hail from different backgrounds and professions about how they (and the diverse protagonists of their stories) chart pathways to best manage dreams and the shifting demands of reality.
