a new way to view writing
just thought of a new way to view writing. as some sort of emotional game to
play with the reader. you can draw them in. make them become involved with
the story. then bore them for a while. make them feel happy. or start to cry.
bring them to intense interest in the story then cut them off. develop rhythm
with the way you do this to the reader. trying to bring them to some ultimate
state of mind. maybe theyll orgasm with pleasure as the final scenes play out
after such a long frustration. pulling here and there. teasing and twisting.
or perhaps youve worked it that theyll get so disgusted and angry about the
ideas in the book that they go out into the world and do something about it.
they become so emotionally involved with the characters that their intellect
changes to accommodate the ideology of not themselves, but the people they read
about. or maybe they develop the opposite ideas. its the ability to do this.
to tear and break and re-fuse together peoples hearts and minds through
writing. its this ability.
