The difference between people who believe they have books inside of them and those who actually write books is sheer cussed persistence - the ability to make yourself work at your craft, every day - the belief, even in the face of obstacles, that you've got something worth saying. ↗

In the fairy tale the painting represents the here and now. The book is actually divided into five sections, through which the key character, the muse, leads us. ↗
