Writing Thinking Everyday

More From Edward Gorey

I really think i write about everyday life. i don't think i'm quite as odd as others say i am. life is intrinsically, well, boring and dangerous at the same time. at any given moment the floor may open up. of course, it almost never does; that's what makes it so boring.
Writing Thinking Boredom
Take out another notebook, pick up another pen, and just write, just write, just write. in the middle of the world, make one positive step. in the center of chaos, make one definitive act. just write. say yes, stay alive, be awake. just write. just write. just write.
Notebook Writing Alive
Doubting what you see is a very odd experience. and doubting what you remember is a little less odd than doubting what you see. but it's also a pretty odd experience, because some memories come with a very compelling sense of truth about them, and that happens to be the case even for memories that are not true.

When i was a kid, and i was odd, the default assumption was that i was odd, not that i was gay. now when a kid is odd in a greensburg, gay or straight, the default assumption is gay.

We also write to heighten our own awareness of life... we write to taste life twice, in the moment, and in retrospection... we write to be able to transcend our life, to reach beyond it...to teach ourselves to speak with others, to record the journey into the labyrinth. we write to expand our world when we feel strangled, or constricted, or lonely... when i don't write, i feel my world shrinking... i feel i lose my fire and my color.

I can't stress enough how important it is to write bad songs. there's a lot of people who don't want to finish songs because they don't think they're any good. well they're not good enough. write it! i want you to write me the worst songs you could possible write me because you won't write bad songs. you're thinking they're bad so you don't have to finish it. that's what i really think it is. well it's all right. well, how do you know? it's not done!

It was r.e.m. who showed other eighties bands how to get away with ignoring the rules - they lived in some weird town nobody never heard of, they didn't play power chords, they probably couldn't even spell 'spandex.' all they had was songs.
