Emily Hodgson Anderson: “What I realized in retrospect was how this personal trajectory… is one I live through, in microcosm, every time I write.”  EMILY HODGSON ANDERSON  As writer and a single mom, when I really want to work, I go out to the garage.

As writer and a single mom, when I really want to work, I go out to the garage. This isn’t because I’m an aspirational mechanic or home gym fanatic but because I’ve set my garage up with some bookshelves and a desk. It is a place I use for a certain kind of thinking, and I’ll even announce to my boys as I head out the back door that I’m “going to work.”Article continues after advertisementUnderstandably perhaps, given their young ages and my proximity, they find this boundary hard to respect.

Mary Shelley’s novel Frankenstein is one of the loneliest books I know. Maybe this is why I kept reading and re-reading it as a lonely child. The creature’s isolation, and quest for companionship, drives the novel, and as a child reader I empathized with both. “I am alone and miserable,” states the creature to his creator, since in his loneliness he has finally tracked down Victor to demand a mate. This same desire for companionship seems true for many of Shelley’s other characters, too.
