Diverting the internal traffic between the Writer as Angel of Light and the Writer as Hustler is that scribbling child in a grown-up body wondering if anybody is listening.
That quote, for me as a writer, is SO perfect that I'm ashamed not to have heard of its author, Herbert Gold, lifelong friend of Allen Ginsberg (phew, I HAVE heard of him!) and described as 'elder statesman of the beat generation.'
