Writing a novel is like driving a car at night.
You can see only as far as your headlights,
but you can make the whole trip that way.E. L. Doctorow, author
Sometimes I need this reminder. Especially when my mind is in a dense fog.

Listen to music. It could save your soul. Be kind. It could save someone’s world. Wear a hat. It could save your life.

So True. So you pull out a map and plot a route first, eh? Then buy some high beams. And take along your best virtual pal, the one who sees you right, the one with a good sense of direction. Then you drive!

I have to turn on the high beams? Yeah that might help eh?
And be careful what you write Mr. Bryce … you just might end up in the passenger seat telling me where to go. But without a map please, it’s so much funner that way.
