I don't consider myself to be a good creative writer. I did get an advanced degree in English, and I can write a great research paper or check for comma errors, but creative writing is not my thing.
I do often find other writers inspiring, so I am using this blog as a way of reflecting on other people's genius. Mostly in song lyrics, but also in great books and articles, I find clear and beautiful grains of truth. So, here are my thoughts on the thoughts of others--original plagiarism.
