About the Book

These are my journal entries of 1995.  I was living in Brooklyn with my friend, John, and his roommate, Liz.  They shared an art loft space on Duffield Street.  Years later, as I visited old haunts, I noticed it had been converted into very expensive, high-end condominiums.  But when I lived there for a brief period (about 2 years) back in the mid-1990's (when I was a “Grunge Girl”), it was very much an artist space.

Brooklyn is my favorite borough, after Manhattan.  It’s edgy and cool, working-class and no-nonsense; however, there might be more yuppies there now, converting real estate and increasing investment.  This piece is less about the borough of Brooklyn itself and more about my experience living there back at that time. My journal entries have been separated by seasons: Spring, ? Summer, ? Fall, ? Winter. ?

About the Author

DeLynn Nicole Poma

My writing is ALL MY OWN. I never have (and I never will) utilize AI-powered writing tools. It might sound mean, but I believe that if you require artificial intelligence to replace your own intelligence ? and complete your sentences, then it's inauthentic: You're not a writer, and your work is not your own. I mostly write ? creative nonfiction and memoir, but I also write about politics, short stories, and poetry. This is most of what I wrote and does not include what I post on my socials (TRUTH and X). I publish on Substack and Draft2Digital as well.?
