Writer Statement

Mitch likes stories that involve the complex problems of human alienation; especially with regard to nature. He finds both tragedy and comedy in the awkwardness of the body, drama in nature’s seductive promise of freedom, and tragic ironies in a species that destroys its own landbase. His work is often satirical, surreal, and darkly comic.
