OP I heard this interesting segment about hypergraphia on NPR several weeks ago, but didn't have the opportunity to post about it until now. I've ordered The Midnight Disease from the library. It certainly sounds good. Has anyone else here read it yet?
From NPR.ORG:
Many authors fear writer's block. But its opposite -- hypergraphia, the driving compulsion to write -- can be equally debilitating. A new book called The Midnight Disease considers the relationship between the wiring of the brain, writing and creativity. NPR's Renee Montagne talks with author and neurologist Alice Flaherty.
To listen to the segment, go to this link:

and click on Morning Edition audio
Enjoy!
