Getting what's inside of me OUT.

It teems, it tickles, it roils, it inflames, it delights, it enchants. It yearns to burst free.

It's greater than me.

If I don't write, I find my creativity manifesting itself in other ways. One winter, I made tons of bead bracelets. One spring, I took up belly dancing. Now I'm not saying that beading and belly dancing aren't awesome things that I love and still want to do. But I am saying that I noticed that while I was doing these things, I was NOT writing.

I've learned that I need to focus, and that when I do, it feels awesome. (less)

Summerlong by Peter S. Beagle
"Peter S. Beagle has long been one of my favorite authors. It is not that I love everything he writes as much as I adore his word-smithing and his ability to evoke emotion. His strength, in other words, is not consistently in plotting. I love his shor" Read more of this review »
