I believe there is some beauty in darkness. In the writers mind it is very dark, at least in mine I believe. I would stay awake at 3 or 4 in the morning and the thoughts that would cross my mind where gruesome and creul they scared even me. Strange enough when I went to sleep I dreamt peacefully and it was bliss but as I woke up the thoughts came back. I would vision different ways to hurt and kill people. Granted I had threatened it many times jokingly i never wanted to kill anyone. Then as I was reading a book of quotes one day I noticed most of the writers I read about were insane or close to it... Thus I began to start writing and my cousin said, " You write beautifully, your mind must be a terrible place." So I guess as a writer we are all a little insane and maybe that insanity is a good thing. Insanity and being different is how we survive.
