A fragment-filled world of pitch darkness

This blog is mainly for the purpose of the blogger to unleash his thoughts of randomness, however senseless, for him to maintain the balance of his sanity. If you want to read through his thoughts, then I must oblige you to leave now- else, your sanity will also be perturbed. You're already warned.

The description you have just read is an implicit example of how random the blogger thinks. Congratulations! You're now well-informed. :D

Why the hell am I writing a novel? Who’s going to read it? And why read it? Whatever I have to say will undoubtedly be of no use when a pair of stockinged limbs go clicking by on seductive heels. And when a guy finds himself in the path of an onrushing army of soldiers brandishing bayonets, what does all my writing or the writing of anybody else matter? […] A novel is usually written by novelists. I am a human being, with a soul, a vanity, an ego, and a suitcase. I am a poet and a writer. I am not a novelist. I live on this earth, and if you don’t mind my saying so, the other man-creatures that exist with me are damned difficult to get along with. And I don’t doubt that they find me difficult also.

In a life of writing books, I have often, believe me, been lost in the maze of doubting. The trick I have learned is to plant a sign or marker in the ground where I stand, so that in my future wanderings I shall have something to return to, and not get worse lost than I am. Having planted it, I press on; the more often I come back to the mark (which is a sign to myself of my blindness and incapacity), the more certainly I know I am lost, yet the more I am heartened too,to have found my way back.
