“Your loneliness is precious to you, I know. Does it disturb you to know you are dear to me? Do not let it. It is such a quiet feeling. It is like the light coming into a room—moonlight—”

— Katherine Mansfield, in a letter to J.M. Murry, dated December 14, 1919

Watters on some of his Nightwing inspirations:

The hope is always to draw from all the iterations of the character that have come before. I had a few issues by Devin Grayson & Rick Leonardi as a kid which I reread until the staples fell out, so I guess that's my foundation. Snyder/Jock/Francavilla's Black Mirror & Morrison/Quitely's Batman & Robin are also favourites, so Dick's tenure as Batman is definitely in my head as well, though it's not something we'll directly dwell on, I suspect.

“We have not long to love.

Light does not stay.

The tender things are those

we fold away.

Coarse fabrics are the ones

for common wear.

In silence I have watched you

comb your hair.

Intimate the silence,

dim and warm.

I could but did not, reach

to touch your arm.

I could, but do not, break

that which is still.

(Almost the faintest whisper

would be shrill.)

So moments pass as though

they wished to stay.

We have not long to love.

A night. A day...”

Tennessee Williams - We Have Not Long to Love

Here is a small excerpt from the book I’m currently writing.

“The secret of awakening lies not in seeking the extraordinary but in seeing the extraordinary within the ordinary. The divine is always present—hidden in plain sight.”

— from The Secret of Awakening
