“At the risk, then, of being shunned by some of my gloomier peers, I venture to tell you that writers work like demons, suffer greatly, and are also happy, in unmistakable ways, some of the time.

I mean, really, if there wasn't some sort of enjoyment to be derived, would any of us keep doing it?”

You first of all draw it on the paper, then you cut it up, then you paste it down, then you change it, then you shove it about, then you may paint bits of it over, so actually you're not making the picture there and then, you're making it through a process, so it's not so spontaneous.”

I try to offer a little bit of myself - some experience from my life that evokes stories in other people.”
