Non-writers think we write because we’re sad. Because we have issues. Because we were abused as children or because our lovers have left us. But we write to save ten-second lifetimes which would otherwise have gone unremembered. We write to capture the beauty of a moment or a sound or a face or a memory. Our words are like hands running over skin. And like sand and time and water, these words run wild, slide swiftly, shift like scent from one side of the earth to the other, running through the hearts of men. Because this is something they can’t quite put their finger on: the fact that without writers, beauty might not exist. ”
