"What Matters To Me Is The -writing-, The Act Of Manufacturing The Novel,
Because While I Am Doing It, I Am In That World I'm Writing About.
"What matters to me is the -writing-, the act of manufacturing the novel,
because while I am doing it, I am in that world I'm writing about. It is
real to me, completely and utterly. Then, when I'm finished, and have to
stop, withdraw from that world -forver-, that destroys me... Don't write for
a living; sell shoelaces. Don't let it happen to you."
-- Philip K. Dick from Notes Made Late at Night by a Weary SF Writer
