I've been thinking about what makes me feel alive. What gets me excited and dreamy? What keeps me distracted in class? Words, mostly. Poetry, creative nonfiction, song lyrics, literary criticism, theory. I wanted to have a place to collect all those things. I usually post quotes and ideas on my blog, but I'm not sure if that's the right outlet anymore. I wanted to make a completely different site with a completely different purpose--not to show off my own writing (though, I'll have some of that on here), but to gather all that inspires me. Those things make me feel more alive. And I believe, in turn, those things draw me closer to God.
