ABSTRACT

You realize the story you started to write is not the one you end up writing. You find that the longer you extend the period of time about which you write, the more uncertain you become about where you’re heading and the meaning of the quest. You don’t have a destination in mind. You set out on an unmarked trail in the middle of a vaguely familiar setting, eager to find out where it could lead. You feel most alive when you are trekking along the path. You don’t want to come to the end and have to stop. It’s the journey that thrills you.
