Writing is an incredibly creatively empowering experience for me. It is the place where nobody tries to control what I'm doing.
Nothing can be as astounding as life. Except for writing. Yes, of course, except for writing, the sole consolation.
I love writing. I feel more connected to that than I do a lot of the other things.
Lyrics is commissioned work, it is my profession. But poetry is my statement to life.
Writing is a very easy way for me to express myself. When I was still at school, I would write for no reason other than I wanted to write.
I like to write. I love to write. But I write just for myself and my own pleasure.
Why did I write? Because I found life unsatisfactory.
Writing helps me create a different world that I can escape to.
I think without writing I would feel completely useless.
I don't really read as much as I used to. A lot of what I was looking for as an escape I find in writing. And the other thing is that I don't want to get into someone else's language when I'm working.
If I went for too long without writing, I would start to feel like something inside me was dying.
At least I can write.
I write because I can't imagine not writing.
When you write, you don't have the social constraints of having people in front of you, so you talk about abstract matters.
I write for free online out of love, passion, and often, rage.
