I was always writing music anyway. I just sort of fell into it. Writing for me is a therapeutic process.

I write music, really, to make myself feel better.

I really enjoy the therapeutic value of writing songs.

I write about my feelings, things that happen in my life and experiences.

I won't say that writing is therapy, but for me, the act of writing is therapy. The ability to be productive is good for my mental health. It's always better for me to be writing than vegetating on some couch.

Writing is my therapy. In addition to my real therapy. God knows where I'd be without it. I'd probably still be at my last job, working in HR at a religious organization. I was horribly miscast.

Writing is my obsession, my passion. My relationship with it is one of the most complex and agonizing and richly vexing that I have in my life.

I love writing. I feel more connected to that than I do a lot of the other things.

I write first for myself as a therapeutic process, to get stuff out and to deal with it.
