All writing, all art, is an act of faith. If one tries to contribute to human understanding, how can that be called decadent? It's like saying a declaration of love is an act of decadence. Any work of art, provide it springs from a sincere motivation to further understanding between people, is an act of faith and therefore is an act of love.

I don't want to own anything until I find a place where me and things go together.

I am always drawn back to places where I have lived, the houses and their neighborhoods.

That's not writing, that's typing

I don't use a typewriter, I write longhand, with a pencil. Essentially I'm a horizontal writer. I think better when I'm lying down.

You're wonderful. Unique. I love you.
