"You're freaked out that you're going to be having a child, and once you're looking after your daughter, it's the most beautiful thing in the world."

One of the beautiful things about writing is that it offers an inner life that's disciplined and at the same time wild. Not in any way servile or submissive. It exists outside of institutional and other forms of authority even when being affected by them. On what almost feels like a cellular level, it's anathema to labeling and enforced divisions.
