Ooh, I love a good manifesto. I wrote a writing manifesto for myself in May. In retrospect, there should have been more f-bombs.

I love this. I can't believe how similar your demon voices are to mine! "Writing is a bodily act" is something I'm going to remember. It's one of the few things that gets me out of my overactive head.

Yes! Great minds think alike. It is bodily in that it takes so much discipline to make yourself sit still to write (as opposed to lying on the couch reading) and in that, I feel better in my body if I have written.

100% yes to all of this. I definitely need my own manifesto!
