If You [c]annot Find Your [h]eart's Desire

I Wish You Would Be More True To Your Demographic Profile. Life Is Confusing Enough.

If You Have Value As An Artist It's Probably Going To Be In Your Capacity To Let Things Inside You Get Past Things That Are Placed There To Keep You From Telling The Truth. The More You See Things As Clearly And Coldly As You Can, The More Value You're Going To Have.

In A Sense, I Feel Like The Job Of The Artist At All Times Is Essentially The Same, Which Is Simply To Tell The Truth. I Mean, I'm Nervous About Any Prescriptions For What A Writer Should Or Shouldn't Do.

I Just Wondered What A Thing It Would Be...if Overnight Everything You Owe Anything To, Justice, Or Love, Had Really Gone Away. Free. It Would Be...heartless Terror. Yes. Terrible, And... Very Great. To Shed Your Skin, Every Old Skin, One By One And Then Walk Away, Unemcumbered, Into The Morning.

I Find Writing Very Difficult. It's Hard And It Hurts Sometimes, And It's Scary Because Of The Fear Of Failure And The Very Unpleasant Feeling That You May Have Reached The Limit Of Your Abilities.
