Writing is the Only Magic I Still Believe In
"Now, the curse of mortality is: we get one life, one point of view, and a single point in time at most. If we're lucky, we know a few languages to access the world and understand it. But writing cheats that because we read stories, we write stories, we can experience a vast number. And it's hard when you think about that. That this writing, these stories we tell, isn't magic."
- Jarred McGinnis, Ted Talk
