Obsession

Random quote of the day:

“Don’t bend; don’t water it down; don’t try to make it logical; don’t edit your own soul according to the fashion. Rather, follow your most intense obsessions mercilessly.”

—Anne Rice, Foreword to The Metamorphosis, In the Penal Colony, and Other Stories by Franz Kafka

I wouldn't know how to write to fashion if I wanted to.

[pjthompson]

Nah, it's a chump's game.

Although I will say this about Anne Rice: most of her later books REALLY needed a good editor. ;-)

[notasupervillain]

YES.

Her later books read like fanfic of her own works.

[pjthompson]

Exactly that!
