"A new ritual I practice, as I get ready to write, I put on my new 4-inc platforms and stand in front of my floorlength mirrow, sometimes as I'm eating chocolate almond-milk ice-cream, and I intone to the mirror to myself: You're a fucking genius."

(4.5 It's sprawling & I don't agree with everything Zambreno writes here but that doesn't even matter - it's important, really important that someone wrote this)
