I go through periods of not writing. Until there's something I can't find in the world that I need, so I write.

I write to make sense of things that don't make sense to me.

That's point of writing: building what you need, right?

I often feel like not writing! Sometimes I overcome it by just sitting there until writing happens. Sometimes I don't write, because books often need periods of percolation.

And so I write. I write my life. I write to escape real life. I write to live moments over again. I write to rewrite the moments I’ve lived over in a way that makes more sense to me. I write the moments to heal. I write the moments I hope never happen. And I write the moments I hope will happen.

If something pops in my mind and it's easy, I write it.
