   Jack Kerouac called his "gloomy book movies" a "It's a vast ethereal movie,   
   I'm an extra and Gerard is the hero and God is directing it from Heaven."   
      
   "Letters to Myself" is how Norman Mailer described what it was that he did,   
   which was writing,   
      
   "Passion --REALISM-- realism was the key. The records were letters. Real   
   letters from me to certain other people." is what Lou Reed said about it in   
   1975.   
      
   Me?   
      
   I'm too busy living and writing down the story to navel gaze that much... so   
   to each your own.
