Better Than Drugs

[poliphilo]

Writing is better than drugs. You go through that door and you're making your own world. No, that's wrong; it makes itself and you're just there to ensure that certain rules- grammar, plausibility- are being observed.

Only sometimes you can hammer and hammer on that door and it won't open.

A lot of writers and other artists have used drugs, but I think it was because of the sort of people they were, not because it helped them in their work. I think its a myth that there's a link between drugs and creativity.
