Abstract
This collection represents a zoomed-out view of my work as a master’s degree candidate at UMKC. It contains six pieces of fiction (seven if you count my experimental piece, Please Consider the Cone), the beginning of two novels, and three pieces of nonfiction. I did not include the poetry I wrote beyond a single instance which tied in strongly to Take Flight, for this I hope you will be appreciative. A number of these pieces have been submitted for publication. Not Gone Yet was published by the web journal Worlds Within, and It Was Never a Joke was written for and is under consideration by the editor of The Pitch. They all represent some attempt at quantifying the distances between, as the title states: between people, between versions of ourselves, between time, and between understanding. I believe the only true understanding of anything in this existence is to thoughtfully consider it in the context of proximity. These pieces aim to do just that.
