Out of My Depth

Why write, unless one wanted to go a little out of one's depth? It's hard to like all the ideas I'm having while I'm writing this book. But writing seems to require some kind of loyalty to something outside of yourself.

Otherwise you are just ringing the changes on a prefabricated set of tools.

I'm genuinely disturbed by some of the ideas I'm having in this book, and yet I can't deny the inner coherence of what I'm writing.
