writing

"In utter loneliness a writer tries to explain the inexplicable."
- John Steinbeck

"If you want to be a write, you must do two things above all: read a lot and write a lot."
- Stephen Kind


I am not sure if I want to be a writer.  But I do know that not writing leaves me with an unease.  This period of inactivity in retrospect seems a dark and useless experience.  It sits in my stomach.  Like a stone.  Which cries out to be acknowledged.  So over the next few hours, few days, few weeks, I will struggle with those inexplicable stories that I face on a near daily basis.  And write.
