People often ask me this, so I've posted the following blurb at
http://www.farrfeed.com:
Why I Do This: "When I'm able to write like that, I feel ecstasy and unity with all Creation. It's like an athlete performing an 'impossible' feat with seeming effortlessness and grace. I live for that... When I'm in that state, I don't care about money or sex or food. I don't care about who I am or what I am. I don't care if I'm in the front of the line or at the very end. I don't even care if I'm alive or dead, because it seems I'm in the same place, either way."
It's all about being "in the zone," in other words, and to experience that, I'd do this whether I got paid or not.
Your thoughts?
