Writing is a great love of mine.

I'm finding writing very fascinating.

I'm a person who is always trying to write in a different vein.

Our admiration of fine writing will always be in proportion to its real difficulty and its apparent ease.

I like to be surprised. The best writing is when it defies me, when it starts going a different way than I had planned.

At its best, the sensation of writing is that of any unmerited grace. It is handed to you, but only if you look for it.

I'm a great believer in the experiential theory of writing.

My feeling is that writing is, for me, a pathological condition. That could sound like a mystical experience, and it may be a mystical experience, but I have learnt just to go with it.

Writing is a way of drifting within my own mind: almost a solitary process, so to speak.

For me, writing is such an escape, and I felt very lucky to have this to run away to.
