"One reason why I write: when I return to the world after a serious session of writing, the world is an order of magnitude more vivid. Everything glows with a more primitive aura. Everything is colored as if with fire. I ache with an awareness that I'm a divided individual, with a desire to unite with the vast and gorgeous world that surrounds me. Trite as the attempts to articulate this might be, the feeling is anything but trite."

Straight 🔥

“I can’t. I can't live in an impression like this. It would end me.” - if I had a nickel for every time I overheard someone saying this in reference to New Jersey

Writing makes the world more vivid for me too, JG. The search becomes more vivid.
