You know, I've never seen myself as a writer, per se.
I see myself as an artist.
So why do I write? Not because I can, or because I want to. It's because I have to.
I have to create in the same way as I have to breathe.
Sometimes the idea my muse just b***h-slapped me with comes out in sculpture.
Sometimes it comes out on stage.
Sometimes it comes out in charcoal.
Sometimes it's oil or acrylic or watercolor.
Usually the idea is too complex for these, so it comes out in words. The English language contains a more shaded pallette, more form, and more movement than any other medium.

So, yeah. I'm an artist. I just happen to paint in text.


***note*** I'm taking a brief break from writing while I clear up my mother's estate.
