forsyth | A minor revelation

Y'know, despite liking Mage lotses, and reading it lots, for a long while I didn't understand why writers were lumped in with Virtual Adepts had Correspondence as their main school. Though it "felt" right. Then a minute ago, I thought of a nifty title, but I'm tired and want to go to bed. So I'd throw it in the file with the rest of my notes. And I thought "I should write every day. LJ doesn't really count, and I have all these nifty bits, but they're useless without some way to connect them. That's what writers do, they find or make the connections between things." And that led to this. Because Correspondence is in theory about the connections. Though it was a bit less coherent than that, but this makes a better story.

I wonder if the "interconnectedness of all things" that's popular in lots of writings is due to the fact that they're written by, y'know, writers. And yes, I realize that this is a largely pointless revelation about something obvious, but hey. It's my journal, it's my braintap. Half the stuff that goes here is me highlighting how my brain works, to try and figure it out for myself.
