“The current literary landscape feels very much in thrall to the idea of the frictionless read… There’s this idea that the reader should just be able to glide through a text. But friction is where the meaning is. Friction is where the art is.”
— Brandon Taylor

“Maybe that's all demons ever are. People like us, doing things without even knowing what we're doing.”
- Orson Scott Card
And here unfolded a microcosm of what World War III might look like, as played out by our little family. Jake Rogers represented the neutrality of Switzerland, with the quiet likeability of Canada, shocked by the behavior of all the tempestuous countries around him. Sunshine Hardesty displayed the cool logic of Germany, the Zen of Japan and their cost-effective exports, plus the bi-curious interest in ancient Greece. And I displayed the cacophonous array of disjointed party politics the United States is known for, with the passion of Italy, the unhinged nature of North Korea and…and whatever the hell South America does.

“I do not over-intellectualize the production process. I try to keep it simple: Tell the damned story.”

I always go into a new project enthusiastically prepared until I start writing. Then the #book has a way of telling me what it wants to be.

It’s a never-ending, upward spiral. And if you think at any point you’re allowed to stop climbing, I’m afraid you’re missing the point. Because the joy is in the climb.
~Mark Manson, “The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck”
