An Emotion Is A Thought, Yes, An Idea, But It Is Also A Sensation, An Ache In Your Body. Desire, Love, Hate, Fear, Repulsion - You Feel These Things In Your Muscle And Bones, Not Just In Your Mind.

Good Stories Are Driven By Conflict, Tension, And High Stakes.

The Rest-the Vast Majority, Tens Of Thousands Of Days-are Unremarkable, Repetitive, Even Monotonous. We Glide Through Them Then Instantly Forget Them. We Tend Not To Think About This Arithmetic When We Look Back On Our Lives. We Remember The Handful Of Big Days And Throw Away The Rest. We Organize Our Long, Shapeless Lives Into Tidy Little Stories...but Our Lives Are Mostly Made Up Of Junk, Of Ordinary, Forgettable Days, And 'the End' Is Never The End.

Well, I Outline Fanatically. I Am A Long Thinker And A Slow Writer, Though I Am Trying To Get Faster.

You Know, Being Confident Isn't The Same As Being Right.
