By the Light of the Page

Reflections on reading and writing

Blank

The whiteness and the brightness of the blank page… What we see shapes our thoughts. How we think affects our vision, filtering the information we receive, limiting or expanding one’s field of perception. The blank page can feel like the limitless expanse of an arctic snowfield or the bright mirror of the cinema screen where we see our dreams projected. When I spend too much of my day staring into a glowing box, processing and organizing information I have nothing to reflect back.
