Writers Write No Matter What

I'm in one of those moods today where I want to read about the masters and learn from them and see whether what I'm feeling inside is unique to me or just part of the process of writing fiction.

Bayard Wu is a professional illustrator and concept artist from China and he impresses the hell out of me.
