Anything We Fully Do Is An Alone

[t]he One Thing I Want For You Is To Recognize When You Are Really Singing In Writing Practice And Honor That. Trust That. When You Were Screaming On The Page. Maybe That Doesn't Make A Whole Book But That Is The True Seed.

I Wonder If I Don't Give Too Much Of Myself To Writing: I Am Always Half Where I Am; The Other Half Is Feeding The Furnace, Kick-starting The Heat Of Creativity. I Am Making Love With Someone But At The Same Time I'm Noticing How This Graceful Hand Across My Belly Might Just Fit In With The Memory Of Lilacs In Albuquerque In 1974.

All Of Us Can Create If We Allow Ourselves To.

I Don't Think Everyone Wants To Create The Great American Novel, But We All Have A Dream Of Telling Our Stories-of Realizing What We Think, Feel, And See Before We Die. Writing Is A Path To Meet Ourselves And Become Intimate.

Finally, One Just Has To Shut Up, Sit Down, And Write.
