Of course it is also important for the writer/s. The poet Emily 
Dickinson, who appears in Gravity's Rainbow (pp. 27-8), considered 
herself to be "a bride of the Holy Ghost".

Ah, Necromancy Sweet!
Ah, Wizard erudite!
Teach me the skill,

That I instill the pain
Surgeons assuage in vain,
Nor Herb of all the plain
Can heal!
