It does seem that any writing inspiration I once had came from a manic period of my life. Then it just stopped with when the dopamine stopped. Its like a well thats full one day and empty the next. Of course talent is no good without the urge. Its funny what actually triggers the urge to write. Yes, people who right are often living during a tortured period of their lives. I dont think these kind of conditions can be turned on and off. Maybe thats the curse.
I've always been writing, even as a child. But I don't have many friends in real life. I enjoy contemplation too. I think we're probably a little more contemplative than most people, and most intelligent.
ReplyDeleteI meant to say "more" intelligent, but "most" works too.
