“I’m free from pain. It’s where nobody tells me what to do; it’s where my imagination is fecund and I am really at my best. Nothing matters more in the world or in my body or anywhere when I’m writing.” — Toni Morrison on NPR’s Fresh Air, 2015
This is exactly the vibe I was talking about in yesterday’s blog. I’m glad I happened across this. I was actually looking into Toni Morrison’s book Imagining Freedom. Here’s a brief summary.
“Toni Morrison’s non-fiction explores the power of word work as a practice of freedom, emphasizing the responsibility of writers to imagine new forms of liberty.”
I’m intrigued by this thought, and I’m interested in reading more of her thoughts on writing and liberty. I think I’d like to step into this challenge if I haven’t already.
