Well, I Like The Rain Before It

Writers Never Feel Comfortable Having Labels Attached To Them, However Accurate They Are.

But At The Same Time, I Have Trouble Keeping Things Out Of Books, Which Is Why I Don't Write Short Stories Because They Turn Into Novels.

I Like The Rain Before It Falls. Of Course There Is No Such Thing, She Said. That's Why It's My Favorite. Something Can Still Make You Happy, Can't It, Even If It Isn't Real.

We Say, 'shall We Meet For A Drink?', As Though Drinking Were The Main End Of The Appointment, And The Matter Of Company Only Incidental, We Are So Shy About Admitting Our Need For One Another.[...]we Say, 'would You Like To Come For Some Coffee?', As Though It Were Less Frightening To Acknowledge That We Are Heavily Dependent On Mildly Stimulating Drinks, Than To Acknowledge That We Are At All Dependent On The Companionship Of Other People.

I'm One Of Those Unlucky People Who Had A Happy Childhood.
