“When I write a book I'm always questioning the project as a whole. I always feel I might have to just throw it away and forget about it, and I've done that with novels I've started and worked on for a long time. It's an option I need in order to write freely.” NeedsFeelsWritingLongBookDoneWholeMightOrderForgetNovelProjectsLong TimeQuestioning Author:Daniel Kehlmann

And the worst thing you could do would be to try to repeat the formula. That would be suffocating.” ThinkingWayNeedsWritingTryingBigsHappensWould BeWorstGoes OnBest WayRepeatsFormulasWorst ThingsSuffocating Author:Daniel Kehlmann
