Great, big, serious novels always get awards. If it's a battle between a great, big, serious novel and a funny novel, the funny novel is doomed. |
| Julianna Baggott |
I always think I know the way a novel will go. I write maps on oversized art pads like the kind I carried around in college when I was earnest about drawing. I need to have some idea of the shape of the novel, where its headed, so that I can proceed with confidence. But the truth is my characters start doing and saying things I don't expect. |

I've read short stories that are as dense as a 19th century novel and novels that really are short stories filled with a lot of helium. |

I suppose I started writing seriously at 16 years old. I thought I wrote a novel at 16 and sent it to New York! They sent it back because it wasn't novel. |

Once, I optioned a novel and tried to do a screenplay on it, which was great fun, but I was too respectful. I was only 100 pages into the novel and I had about 90 pages of movie script going. I realized I had a lot to learn. |

I felt more doubtful than usual with 'Goon Squad,' because I knew that the book's genre wasn't easily named - Novel? Stories? Novel-in-stories? - and I worried that its lack of a clear category would count against it. My hopes for it were pretty modest. |
| Neil Gaiman |
The short story is still like the novel's wayward younger brother, we know that it's not respectable - but I think that can also add to the glory of it. |

I always had short hair, and I hated my short hair. I was always mistaken for a boy, but my mom wouldn't let me change my hair because she was always chasing me around with a hairbrush, and it was always tangled, so she just would cut it off, and she's right: short hair did suit me. |
| Italo Calvino |
How much energy is wasted in Italy in trying to write the novel that obeys all the rules. The energy might have been useful to provide us with more modest, more genuine things, that had less pretensions: short stories, memoirs, notes, testimonials, or at any rate, books that are open, without a preconceived plan. |
| Jennifer Egan |
'Goon Squad' took about three years to write and that's the short end. My second novel, 'Look at Me,' took six years. |

now i often look for the number 33 and 333 particularly. i have in the past 'tested' god but asking for certain affirmations for proof of his presence. nothing specific like o this person will text me at this time saying this but more reasonable things like relationship advice or a promotion of sorts to show my business mind is in the right set. i know this sounds quite generic or easily explained but i really am not searching for these numbers or objects, they just appear at times. imnot scouring the ground for pinecones i just continue my day and sometimes they pop up more unusually thannormal. again, i dont believe in coincidence anymore so often i hear certain words or events or topics or ideas in conversations/raps/videos over a short period of time.

The 90's are credited for a 'golden era' of hip hop. There is still so much intrinsically spiritual music from this era to discover. The whole world was in the thicket of a deeply introspective hip hop beat, and this culmination and amalgamation of hundreds of emcees deep in thought should rightfully be credited to the huge strides in hip hop's group consciousness at the time. If you listen to enough of the right material from this time, you can very clearly see the overlapping religious themes and feel the essence of what hip hop was at the time. Many of these artists unable to even come close to the styles they were delivering at the time. MCs all over the Americas were pulling fire right out of the ether for at least a solid few years.

nothing. just a lot of the positions are either less than i want to be paid or part time, so flying down for interviews for a part time job and relocating is kinda dumb. and a lot of the full time positions probably arent contacting me cuz i clearly state i am located in michigan. i think ill apply more seriously this summer

I had a dream I got robbed and it was really scary but at the same time it was like I was really disappointed the whole time. I was just like aww man they're going to take alllll my shit.

i spend a lot of time just sitting and thinking. i think it really helps me come to certain conclusions in my life but also theres only so much you get out of just thought, maybe its a waste of time

Lived life is essential to informing those periods of thought too. I like to think that the best time for thinking is while your doing, and when you're not doing, that's the best time to consider HOW to think.

Take time off. Sit with your thoughts. We all need a break. No time like the present to get you rejuvenated for the future.

"Spending time" time is not a commodity to be spent, it is to be used. Even then there are those who question if it's even something to be used, but something to be had
