You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you mad. - Aldous Huxley

And maybe set you free.

There’s a long and storied history of the links between truth & beauty, creativity & madness, and art & catharsis.

I’ve said before that I believe that writers are the penultimate truth-tellers. But telling the truth means that we must first process and then understand the truth.

And there’s a lot of truth out there. And a lot of madness.

But there are also a lot of writers, like you and me — and we’re all in this together. We’ll keep each other on track and mad in the delightfully creative way (and not the hugging-your-knees-in-the-shower way).

Sound good?
