I Love Writing. I'm Not Particularly Comfortable

I Don't Want To Analyze Myself Or Anything, But I Think, In Fact I Know This To Be True, That I Enter The World Through What I Write. I Grew Up Believing, And Continue To Believe, That I Am A Screw-up, That Growing Up With My Family And Friends, I Had Nothing To Offer In Any Conversation. But When I Started Writing, Suddenly There Was Something That I Brought To The Party That Was At A High-enough Level.
