The Product of My Melancholy

The Product of My Melancholy consists of eleven fictional short stories, varying in length but connected by the same themes and ideas. The stories explore topics related to mental health, friendship, loneliness, art, and creativity, as well as the efforts poured into pursuing a dream. Pieces such as "Flight" and "Somewhere in Between" offer musings on feeling stuck in life and finding possible solutions in nature and the forces around us. Short stories such as "Promethean" and "Skeletons" present narratives about characters experiencing a clash between their personal philosophies and the ordeals they find themselves in. In all the stories, emotions and character are at the central focus, with an aesthetically painted environment that seeks to communicate a tone that is befitting to each story. As each story unfolds and the core themes develop, each part comes together to yield a sum where The Product of My Melancholy is found.
