I've never read his books but I have been subscribed to his blog for years. I guess he's my inspiration. He was teenage writer and now he's a published author.
Honestly, I want writing to be my full time career. I want it to be my north, south, east and west. I want it to be my working week and sunday rest. I want it to be my sun, my moon, my stars and sky. I want it to always be on my mind and in my dreams.
If this is passion, I feel it. I feel it in my heart and I feel in my blood. I feel it in every muscle and limb. I feel it in my eyes. I want to gorge them out and put them back in, just so I can write the experience.
I want to forget about everything, everyone. I want to forget what day it is, what date it is. I want to forget to eat, forget to shower, forget to socialise. Forget about being cold or warm. I want to forget basic human needs, just so I can write for the rest of my life.
I don't care about tomorrow or yesterday. I don't care about beauty, or art or anything visual. I don't need my eyes to see. Because in writing, there is nothing to see but mere words on a page.
This is what my life will be, someday. Writing is what I love and someday, it's all I'll ever need.
