By writing I can live in ways that I could not survive.

Every so often something shatters like ice and we are in the river of our existence. We are aware.

Your life feels different on you, once you greet death and understand your heart's position. You wear your life like a garment from the mission bundle sale ever after - lightly because you realize you never paid nothing for it, cherishing because you know you won't ever come by such a bargain again.

I feel myself becoming less a person than a place, inhabited, a foreign land.

I always have some way of putting the stories together that works for the book. I've always switched points of view in my books. I'm a Gemini.

Here I am, where I ought to be. A writer must have a place where he or she feels this, the place to love and be irritated with.

Here is the most telling fact: you wish to possess me.
 Here is another fact: I loved you and let you think you could.
