She always needed a newspaper to read, and even when there was no newspaper, she'd find some cereal box that had a list of ingredients on the back and concentrate on that; eating was secondary.
Maybe sometimes it was because it easy to get lost in between the glucoses and starches and diglycerides - to ignore everything else around her. Get lost in the spaces between the words, and imagine that perhaps there were more to the words themselves. But when she grew dissatisfied with what she read, she wrote. She wrote because lonely places didn't have books or anything to read, or when she was outside, she'd invent a story in her head. It kept her going, and for that little bit, it was enough, just enough, to escape. |
