"'A genuine inspiration has visited me’, he wrote to his friend in October… Stavrogin is everything", Dostoevsky wrote in a note dated August 16, 1870. Once the true protagonist appeared, the materials of [Demons] began to compose themselves around him. The result: neither pamphlet nor poem but recasting of both, to a cost of another two years of work. What is it about the creative process that drives the feeling to "say everything?".

ERRATA On the "Jung Fan Fiction": here Robert is *not* pointing to the source material itself as a form of fantasy escape, but instead, towards certain distorted versions of Jung found in popularized media, usually self-help and spiritual circles, that can sometimes "spin" Jungian concepts out of their competency and into a framework or line of reasoning that is affective and attempts to reach too far in it's explanation (i.e., beyond the initial perimeter of what Jung outlines).
