Writing as Magic

Does anyone else have this amazing sense of magical creation from writing? Kosmogenesis--the creation of a new world--there's a real thrill to it, and it can be terribly addicting. I do think Stephen King had it right, too--writing is a form of telepathy, of transmitting the contents of one's own head into someone else's. In any case, it's fun being a wizard, of sorts.  :)

Agree! Creating something from nothing is an incredible feeling, especially as it takes shape on the page. When others read it and get it, it's bliss!

I agree! And I love that word, kosmogenesis. Sounds delicious.
