Summary/Abstract: Facts are one thing, emotions another. Although I write at least a few lines every day, in any “genre”, even a diary or a translation, I have never had the feeling that writing has become my normal, regular activity. I was never able to stroll confidently onto the wasteland of writing. It was rather a casual sneaking or an accidental catch. If it happens that I write several pages at once, it is an unpredictable breakthrough which I can neither explain, nor replicate at will. The ability to write systematically may be related to the conversation skill which I do not possess. I know people who are able to use their education incessantly in pleasant, intelligent and witty conversations on various topics: in a constant and logical order they produce a thought, then frame it, brace it, capture it with wellchosen words and then all over again. I could say that their spiritual relatives are authors who spin or excrete contents of their texts from themselves.
