What is Writing? It is transportation to a meteorite.
---Lynda Barry, in What It is
...and composition is transportation to the Metolius Preserve forest and wildflower-spangled meadow; it is a slow sweet walk to a bridge overlookiing Lake Creek, to water we will find is not simply blue; writing is transportation into the hearts and stories of human beings courageous enough to clean up their pens and write without plan.
