I don't write for an audience, I don't think whether my book will sell, I don't sell it before I finish writing it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I don't ever write with a particular audience in mind. I just write books that please me.
Write a book you'd like to read. If you wouldn't read it, why would anybody else? Don't write for a perceived audience or market. It may well have vanished by the time your book's ready.
I don't perceive an audience at all when I write a book. It's pure self-indulgence.
I think people become consumed with selling a book when they need to be consumed with writing it.
I don't want my writing to be work to read. My main goal is completely shameless entertainment. I want people to smile and giggle and enjoy the book. I'm not trying to save the world through literature.
When I'm writing a book, you can't think about your audience. You're going to be in big trouble if you think about it. You're got to write from deep inside.
My book sales make 'real writers' possible.
I don't write for a particular audience.
I do not write for an audience.
You want an audience. If you didn't, you wouldn't be a writer. The biggest motivation to write is the knowledge that someone will read it.
