Loved the Stutz documentary on Netflix. This quote, and many others stuck with me.
"It’s really a magical thing. You enhance your relationship with yourself by writing. Some people say, “Well, write what?” “I’m not interesting.” “I’m not a writer.” It doesn’t matter.
If you start to write, the writing is like a mirror. It reflects what’s going on in your unconscious, and things will come out if you write in journal form that you didn’t know that you knew."
I’m becoming more and more obsessed with exploring the power of vulnerability in writing. I write memoir-style pieces and I’ve seen firsthand how the universal emerged from the specifics of the stories we write.
I’m mildly sunburned and plotting a room for the quiet, odd and poetic web. I’ll send an invite in due time.
