Creativity Is No Big Deal.

Every Moment Is Enormous And It Is All We Have.

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.

Understand That Writing Is Like An Athletic Activity. To Play Tennis Well, You Expect To Keep Practicing, But For Some Reason With Writing, You Think You Should Come Out Fresh The First Time.

We Are Important And Our Lives Are Important, Magnificent Really, And Their Details Are Worthy To Be Recorded.

So Writing Is Not Just Writing. It Is Also Having A Relationship With Other Writers. And Don't Be Jealous, Especially Secretly. That's The Worst Kind. If Someone Writes Something Great, It's Just More Clarity In The World For All Of Us.
