Splash du Jour: Wednesday

It was only after two years' work that it occurred to me that I was a writer. I had no particular expectation that the novel would ever be published, because it was sort of a mess. It was only when I found myself writing things I didn't realise I knew that I said, 'I'm a writer now.' The novel had become an incentive to deeper thinking. That's really what writing is — an intense form of thought.
-- Don DeLillo --


Have a great Wednesday!

Oh, this one is wonderful -- "it was sort of a mess" -- I imagine that's almost always true.
