		<description><![CDATA[I wish I could find where I heard this quote. I&#8217;ve been thinking a lot about how the center of my artistic process is found in the tension between the emotional and the technical (the editor and the creator, the improvisation and the hard work, the open and closed). &#8220;Find what moves you emotionally, and inspiration and vision will follow. You can&#8217;t technically move the emotion. These days, you don&#8217;t get paid for the technical. You have to get to [&#8230;]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=spaghettipie.wordpress.com&#038;blog=1378467&#038;post=2002&#038;subd=spaghettipie&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

So as I was out on my little jaunt last night, my mind floated to a recent discussion I&#8217;d had with a group of ladies about Brene Brown&#8217;s definition of authenticity. Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day.

I choose to inhabit my days, to allow my living to open me, to make me less afraid, more accessible, to loosen my heart until it becomes a wing, a torch, a promise.

Once for just the story and snowboarding &#8211; because it&#8217;s pretty badass. But I think there are lots of other layers there &#8211; a desire to go out an experience life rather than living second hand, the fearlessness to just jump off a cliff and go without the ability to plan every last detail, the idea of watching for the ideal [&#8230;]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=spaghettipie.wordpress.com&#038;blog=1378467&#038;post=1612&#038;subd=spaghettipie&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

So, yes, Junot Díaz writes slow: &#8220;You work and you throw out and you look and you hunt and you try to find a sentence. You spend a lot of time staring at a screen.&#8221; Yes, it&#8217;s tortured him that he writes slow.

I tell you, writing for me is letting my heart bleed on the page. So to work on a project of this length feels a lot like death at times.
