“Well, first you have to love writing. A lot of authors love having written. But I enjoy the actual writing. Beside that, I think the main reason I can be so prolific is the huge amount of planning I do before I start to write. I do a very complete, chapter-by-chapter outline of every book I write. When I sit down to write, I already know everything that's going to happen in the book. This means I've done all the important thinking, and I can relax and enjoy the writing. I could never write so many books if I didn't outline them first.” IfsThinkingKnowsWritingFirstsWellsMeanI CanImportantBookReasonDoneHappensEnjoyWrittenHugeAmountPlanningRelaxChaptersOutlines Author:R.

“From the moment I start a new novel, life's just one endless torture. The first few chapters may go fairly well and I may feel there's still a chance to prove my worth, but that feeling soon disappears and every day I feel less and less satisfied.” FeelsFirstsWellsMayStillsMomentsFeelingsChanceNovelProveDisappearEndlessSatisfiedTortureJust OneChaptersDissatisfaction Author:Emile Zola
