"Writing is my shelter. I don't hide behind the words; I use them to dig inside my heart to find the truth."
American Novelist
1951 -
What is your art for you? Is it your shelter? Your protection? Your connection to the outside world? Whether we are writers, painters or poets, our art serves us in many ways. Sometimes it provides us hope for a better world. Sometimes it provides us with the strength to go on living. Often it saves us from our own worst selves. Some of us are better people because of our art.
Do you tell the truth with your art? Do you share what needs to be shared. Or do you hide behind your art? Do you dig deep inside your soul and reveal the truth? Or do you share only what floats on the surface of the water?
