Photographic determinism

When someone sets their ultimate goal of becoming an author, they put that before everything else. Even at the risk of getting hurt.

Certainly trying to express the complexity of the inner world through the world that presents itself before my eyes is not an easy operation. The risk of being misunderstood is always present. Especially because we live in a world where everyone's efforts are rewarded, in that almost universal way.

Being able to create something in a personal and therefore recognizable way is too important to me to start calculating what's best for me. That's just how I am, and I don't intend to change that.
