Quote: “when I was seized again with those indescribable sensations that heralded the change; and I had but the time to gain the shelter of my cabinet, before I was once again raging and freezing with the passions of Hyde. It took on this occasion a double dose to recall me to myself;” Comment: This strikes me as a situation quite similar to addiction, especially since its quiet literally a drug that keeps Hyde at bay.

My Workspace
-> From http://writersatwork.tumblr.com/page/5 picture of Daphne du Maurier This is my work space, its my desk in my room. I see similarities such as other papers/ books on the desk between my work space and Daphne’s. I also see that the means to write is in the center of our desks.
