Tania quoted Write for Life by Julia Cameron
(Media deprivation - ) that means no reading and no time spent on the computer. It even means no talk radio. For all of us, there is a panic which sets in. No words? No words! No magazines, no books, no computers, no words. Forbidden, words call to us. We are banning words, and the forbidden words begin to build up a head of steam. We are all addicted to words, and when words are forbidden, we find ourselves restless, irritable, and discontent. We miss our words. We are tempted to cheat, to read just a little. But not reading pays off.
