fiction drives me

“…in everybody’s life there’s a point of no return. And in a very few cases, a point where you can’t go forward any more. And when we reach that point all we can do is quietly accept the fact. That’s how we survive.” ~kafka on the shore, haruki murakami

in yakutat for the week, making matches, making magic.

subscribed to writer magazine. maybe i'll get that short story published. or maybe i'll just end up with a bunch of rejection letters and be blackballed from literary circles because i sent my manuscript with a funny note that says, "I know where you live, haha."*

my new reading goal is to read something from each nobel laureate for literature. working on "penguin island" by anatole france and "narcissus and goldmund" by herman hesse. by working on, i mean they've been haphazardly flung somewhere in my room, and i'll find them 2 months later covered in mold and hair.
