Writing always reflects the previously written and read (from whatever source): Writing is rewriting. Other discourses are being transformed, integrated and dismissed. These processes of writing and reading can also be defined as mechanisms of invention and discovery.”
— Andrea Sick, Reading & Writing: 25 Manifestos
“This is the reasoning behind my manifesto, a move towards transparency in my intentions, motives and views. Perhaps this will inspire you to craft your own. And if you do, by all means to do so with enough cheeky humor and kindness to remind yourself and the reader that you fully own that you are but one fabric in the cosmic thrift store.”
