Elevation

I have found little distinction between better writing and more honest writing.

Actualization

Social convention isn't worth the effort if it robs you of meaning.

Assertion

The best time to read is night, the best time to write is morning, and the best way to focus is quiet.

Abjection

Dangerous, using the same word to describe lasting fulfillment as with someone who happens to be smiling.

Inspiration

Trying to always be happy is the most futile effort--an impossibility with the promise that you will ever again think only one kind of thought.

Obstruction

So happens, there are infinitely more wrong words than right ones.

Exploration

The Right Words exist for everything.

Frustration

Writing is itchy.

Distraction

Reality was pretty damn loud this week.

Creation

The creative process begins the moment I silence reality.
