I particularly enjoyed how he submitted his work on toilet paper to the publishing company, and the messsage he sent with it. He is an inspiration to most writers.

So much advice about writing for blogs these days is about selling something other than ideas. After experiencing a month long blog-block, this feels more in tune with the way I think and how I want to communicate... A Great post, Jesse – thanks for putting this up!

I need to take my own mind back to my creative writing class days in college. There's so much that is both liberating and meaningful going the poetic/literary/musical route. Of course, Jack lays out a nice road map to start the process. Cheers. That's a helluva thought, Jesse. I need to take my own mind back to my creative writing class days in college.

Outstanding list of thoughts! This causes me to want to create a more spontaneous prose-type blog, as opposed to writing just the business type stuff. Thanks!
