If you're grabbed by art I think you should do whatever comes best to you. Whether it's a novel or a play or a song, it doesn't matter as much as the fact that you are doing something about the situation.

"The old English novel is something that the English created, why should I use it?"

I have no fight with any language.

I will use whatever is useful to me.
