You see, we ought
to nourish the reader, even if it's
only a little bit. Stir his brain,
move his heart. Offer him some escape from
the oppressive monotony of his, uh,

only gotten from you. Otherwise, what's the point
of being a writer at all? A good book isn't something
to pass the time... [SIRENS WAILING] It should make
your God damn day
