“I have to write. I don't know what else to do. The others are asleep now, but it isn't dark. I'm on watch because I couldn't sleep if I tried. I'm jittery and crazed. I can't cry. I want to get up and just urn and run... Run away from everything. But there isn't any away. I have to write. There's nothing familiar left to me but the writing. God is Change. I hate God. I have to write.” — Octavia E. Butler
I have to write. I don't know what else to do. The others are asleep now, but it isn't dark. I'm on watch because I couldn't sleep if I tried. I'm jittery and crazed. I can't cry. I want to get up and just urn and run... Run away from everything. But there isn't any away.
I have to write. There's nothing familiar left to me but the writing. God is Change. I hate God. I have to write.
