(Today I try to explain how a story writes itself.)“The universe is made of stories, not of atoms.”
- Muriel Rukeyser
The story of mankind would be rather dull if it is told from atoms.

~~~~~~~~~~"
My subject is beginning to oppress my mind as a nightmare does the body. My head is full of ideas, of which the order is not yet clear to me, and which I must consider singly. I should like to run, but I can only drag myself slowly along. You know that I never take up my pen to support a system, or to draw, whether wrongly or rightly, certain conclusions. I give myself up to the natural flow of my ideas, allowing myself in good faith to be led from one consequence to another. Therefore, till my work is finished, I never know exactly what result I shall reach, or if I shall arrive at any"
- Alexis De Tocqueville
At last I could explain how my stories are written.
