"

What do we actually consider to be __ormal?" It__ only about what our conventional mentality is or isn__ able to understand, and agree to accept as __eal.__n fact, the shadowy edge between normal and paranormal is more than ILLUSORY_ The exact same can be stated about the border between calling your novel non-fiction or fiction.What if you could close your eyes and see different worlds and planets? What if you could see them with some kind of different vision, even with your eyes open? Would that make you a paranoid_ a freak, a genius, a crazy? Or, maybe, an Indigo, if that__ what__ been happening to you since you can remember? If something unusual is what you really see and really feel, and if that__ what does happen to you in your real life, how is THAT called FICTION? One simple reason... that it__ the only way the society would agree to call it __ormal,_ based on the current level of development of their mentality.

INDIGO DIARIES: A Series of Novels

"

Quinn seemed to have become one of a jaded philosophical society, a group of arcane deviates. Their raison d'etre was a kind of mystical masochism, forcing initiates toward feats of occult daredevilry - "glimpsing the inferno with eyes of ice", to take from the notebook a phrase that was repeated often and seemed a sort of chant of power. As I suspected, hallucinogenic drugs were used by the sect, and there was no doubt that they believed themselves communing with strange metaphysical venues. Their chief aim, in true mystical fashion, was to transcend common reality in the search for higher states of being, but their stratagem was highly unorthodox, a strange detour along the usual path toward positive illumination. Instead, they maintained a kind of blasphemous fatalism, a doomed determinism which brought them face to face with realms of obscure horror. Perhaps it was this very obscurity that allowed them the excitement of their central purpose, which seemed to be a precarious flirting with personal apocalypse, the striving for horrific dominion over horror itself.("The Dreaming In Nortown")
