Photo of Nicole Zhu courtesy of Zach GrossStaff reader Gibson Grimm talks with NER 45.4 author Nicole Zhu about telescoping in and out of loneliness, humor and contradiction, and the sequencing of her short story “Never, Rarely, Sometimes, Often.”Gibson Grimm: Early in the story, you mention making “quantifiable a subjective feeling.” This comes to be a defining phrase in the story as you weave together ideas from biology, psychology, and politics into the personal experiences of the characters.

A decade of reading 52 books in 52 weeks! I never thought that when I started this “challenge” back in 2014 as a college student that I would keep it up for so long. 2024 was a year of major life changes, which made me reprioritize reading. Writing workshops and classes made me think more critically about the books I read, and I felt more connected to literary communities.

They numb my ass, but it isn’t enough. The infection runs deep, too deep for the lidocaine to reach, the doctor explains. All the WebMD pages and comment threads told me the lidocaine injections would be the worst part. Fire in your veins / hurts like a motherfucker / seriously thought i was going to pass out. I’m facedown on the exam table, my pants trapped around my knees. The vinyl is cold against my skin, and I try to wriggle away from the patch of cracked upholstery against my hip.

This past weekend, I took a Tin House craft intensive with Elaine Hsieh Chou on what film and TV can teach us about stories and novels. An optional part of our homework was listening to an episode of Scriptnotes, a podcast hosted by John August (Charlie’s Angels, Big Fish) and Craig Mazin (Chernobyl, The Last of Us), called “How to Write a Movie.” My partner is a screenwriter and I’ve often overheard him listening to this podcast in the shower, so it was fun to finally listen to a full episode.
