Why We Write

Just as I was welcoming my new book, Joan Chandler Today,  from the publisher, I came across these words from Susan Orlean in her book, The Library Book.  She is such a great writer.  I'll let her explain a little of how I feel.

But if something you learn or observe or imagine can be set down and saved, and if you can see your life reflected in previous lives, and can imagine it reflected in subsequent ones, you can begin to discover order and harmony.  You know you are part of a larger story . . .
