自從改日記的習慣為寫網誌，我便不時感到困擾。日記作爲個人史記，在沒有他者的閲讀下，擁有無限的創作自由，可以天馬行空無所顧慮。但從我失掉為個人寫作的耐心，就總在疑惑自己書寫的目的。我不像很多人那樣，可以假想出一個相對固定的讀者群。我的讀者在我書寫時不斷變換著臉孔，一會兒是A，一會兒是Z，一會兒是我自己，一會兒是誤闖而來的陌生人。因而我的文字看起來七拼八湊，主題淩亂，修辭卻繁冗且空洞。像日記的變體，卻缺乏日記的自由。

我日益感到無話可説，書寫的慾望卻日益強烈。

Graphomania is not a desire to write letters, diaries, or family chronicles (to write for oneself or one’s immediate family); it is a desire to write books (to have a public of unknown readers)…

Graphomania (an obsession with writing books) takes on the proportions of a mass epidemic whenever a society develops to the point where it can provide three basic conditions:

1. a high enough degree of general well-being to enable people to devote their energies to useless activities;
2. an advanced state of social atomization and the resultant general feeling of the isolation of the individual;
3. a radical absence of significant social change in the internal development of the nation. (…Bibi was absolutely right when she claimed never to have experienced anything from the outside. It is this absence of content, this void, that powers the motor driving her to write.)

But the effect transmits a kind of flashback to the cause. If general isolation causes graphomania, mass graphomania itself reinforces and aggravates the feeling of general isolation. The invention of printing originally promoted mutual understanding. In the era of graphomania the writing of books has the opposite effect: everyone surrounds himself with his own writings as with a wall of mirrors cutting off all voices from without.
