Sometimes reality is just too much and I pop out for a while. I step into a story. I make it my own. A space shaped just for me.
Then I expand my space to accommodate my latest imaginings. I push, stretch, build and take new ground with every new thought, with every fresh fruit of each branch of each path. And once I've created sufficient space, I invite my friends, my close friends, my network family to join me and to join my story and so to enjoy the strange fruit of my imaginings.
I need to write. It's where I get to call the shots.
