Between the moment of determination and the moment of actualization, there is a period of standby. Expectation, uncertainty, and excitement blend together in a way that blurs on recollection; when I made the decision to leave New York for a season, I didn't want that transition time to be lost. The Last Six Months in Brooklyn is essentially a stylized diary, a documentation of the feelings, moments, and people that comprised my present before it became my past. It covers the unremarkable -- my commute, countless coffee shops and workdays, birthday parties and simple road trips. My hope is that if you find yourself in a similar standby, between a choice and the change it makes, you will recognize some of the pieces in these pages.
