If you're with an agent and they don't like where your work is going - the pressure behind it is the pressure of the hierarchy which says "I know what I am talking about," which I find offensive.

I learned to live in my own head. I learned to follow intuition and more than anything, I learned what was important to me.

But I know what it means to crave what you're not. To want to sew up that rift because it's exhausting to hold it open. Sometimes you just need to be someone else, someone who doesn't care about anything at all. I know I do. I want emptiness but I can't have it.

There doesn't seem to be a lot of stance from the outside of that world to disagree.

I was always face to face with total futility and powerlessness.

The world is a violent child none of us will get to see grow up.

Go ahead and do what you're doing.
