REVELATIONS.
I don't care if I write something offensive. I don't care if it's profane. I don't care if it's a bit off-color so long as it's real, so long as it means something.I'd rather write something that needs censorship than something that is pleasantly accepted because at least then I am saying something, something somebody else refused to say or couldn't say.Abortion, abuse, violence, drugs, a third world buried in our own society that we don't have to travel by boat to live in, to have clog our dirty, over-oiled pores, that's the life I live, that's the world I know and fairytales are only for bedtime.There is a reason nightmares wake us up in the night, they mean to alarm us, to catch our sweating, panting attention. Don't get me wrong, I want to write whatever comes to me but should I ever become a great writer, should I ever be publishable, I don't want to write what people expect me to write. I want to write what needs writing.
