“I can arrange words on a page but I can't seem to organize books on a shelf. Over the years, My Secret has shelved thousands and thousands, held each one in his hands. He thinks they might have seeped into him, through his skin, as much as the books he's read. At night and on his days off we spend hours talking about writing. He reads three or four books at a time. When he's not working at the bookstore he goes to other bookstores around the city and browses until closing time. Holding more volumes in his hands, filling himself up with words.” WritingBooksWordsBook LoversFrancesca Lia BlockBook SellersThe Thorn Necklace Book:The Thorn Necklace: Healing Through Writing and the Creative Process Source: The Thorn Necklace: Healing Through Writing and the Creative Process
