My muse

Reading by candlelight late at night is one of the best experiences I have ever had, and no matter what I do in the future, it will always remain be a treasured ritual. There are just some books that shouldn't remain closed. Books that inspire you and bring you joy, fear and rage along with the characters. The characters become like family. 

I used to stay up too late at night dissolving into a book or writing. Those times when my eyes burned and my hand would begin to hurt so much all I could do was switch to the other side, those times are what matter.
