Persephone is a pseudonym, borrowed from that unfortunate goddess who was just picking flowers, minding her own business, when she got kidnapped into the underworld by Hades. You know how that is—totally fine, maybe even a little manic one minute (or one month), then surprise! You’re crossing the Styx with your favorite Uber driver, Charon (someone is definitely not getting a tip), headed straight for Hades-level hopelessness. Then, before you know it, you’re somehow back up top again. Not sure how, but you’ll take it. And then—ding!—the Uber notification pops up all over again. When will this end? If Persephone were real, she would get it. So she’s going to be a little real here on this website. She lets me be more open about things I can’t say under my real name. It’s not total protection, just a small layer. And honestly, she epitomizes many of us. So I think she’s a good choice.
