Let Me Eat Cake by Leslie F. Miller5/19/2023 ![]() ![]() Sometimes the pictures illustrate words or thoughts. Īs for the photography, I take pictures for similar reasons-to express passion and enthusiasm for a subject. A short essay I’d written got enthusiastic applause at an open reading during my MFA residency, so I thought: What could be better than a whole book like this? We’ll see if I’m right. I couldn’t devote three years to him without beginning to sound like Eyeore. I chose to write about cake because I love it. I committed by enrolling in an MFA program (Goucher College), where I knew I would have mentors to help me work on a book. I never had trouble writing short, but writing long was a different beast. But the truth is that it wasn’t as easy as it looked. It shouldn’t have taken me so long, and I will probably go on regretting that it did. LM: I have always wanted to write a book. ![]() CC: Tell us about your book, your photography, and other creative endeavors. ![]()
