Synopsis
I have never kept a journal-I have been too busy living; but to-day I begin a journal. I am so built that I can do but one thing at a time. Now that I have begun The Captive, I must be haunted with it all day; when I am not writing it I must be dreaming it, or restless because I am not. Therefore it occurred to me that in the hours of weariness I would write about it what was in my mind-what fears and what hopes; why and how I write it will be a story in itself, and some day I think it will be read.
