There is a dedication to truth (of the moment) evident in Myles’ writing style, often expressed fast paced as thought, no space for reader distrust. Excite preserved. The language of Eileen will amend later.
In For Now, Myles speaks of commonality. Remembering. We are all born artists, childhood a kingdom of art, puppetry and play. Real as true. Brought together with lessons of conviction in early adulthood, the written word the ‘eventual visible element’ of active inner voice. Our endless arrival.
This confessional lends to the accessibility of the practice, attentions to something we are already, have always been doing. Validation a gift from a poet so personally revered.

zoolmcg's review against another edition
I was hoping for an engaging memoir on writing, but I found the tangents and details about the landlords and Texas and everything too unfocused.
I wanted this to be a quick read, so as soon as I felt myself forcing myself to read on, I knew I wasn’t enjoying it properly.
I don’t want to write off Myles though, I’ll read some of their other stuff down the line.
