JAY SMITH / OLD HICKORY, TN
Jay watched her uncle die at the age of 13 (she was, not him, he was 64). The shape of his hands never left her mind. She started writing to forget, but also to remember. Funny how that works. She stopped going to church that summer. She realized the only person she could blame for anything was herself.
