xTx is a writer living in Southern California. She has been published online in places such as PANK, Monkeybicycle, Smokelong Quarterly, elimae and Dogzplot. Her free e-book entitled, “Nobody Trusts a Black Magician” is available at nonpress. She says nothing at www.notimetosayit.com

She’s xTx. Her writing is raw, brave, and charged. She writes works of such talent and verve no one really cares about her actual identity. We’re far more caught-up in the words, worlds, and truths she gives us. Yet I’m going to out her. I think everyone should know: In addition to her extraordinary and no-holds-barred writing, xTx is incredibly kind and heartful.

Writing wise, where are you now? Where are you going?

I’ve done a lot of writing this year that hasn’t shown up in public. When it finally does, I will be happy.

I am going and going. I feel that my writing now is better than my writing before. So, I hope that wherever it is I’m going, I’ll be better when I get there.

What informs your creative process? How do you keep inspired?

I get randomly inspired. Today I heard the phrase, “She’s a spaghetti girl!” It was uttered in a high-pitched voice with complete love and adoration and instantly I knew I needed to write about it. I need to find out who the spaghetti girl is.

My creative process is to get inspired by something and go with it, wherever it wants to take me.
