Writing is hard work: it is like doing homework for the rest of your life. You are always chipping away at it.

The nice thing about writing at home is that it's almost as though I'm doing it already. I get out of bed thinking of my work, and I don't have to go anywhere to do it.

Writing is making sense of life. You work your whole life and perhaps you've made sense of one small area.

Writing is like playing golf - you have to keep working at your swing.

The tough thing about writing is you go into a room alone, you close the door and you do your work.

Writing is something I can do by myself.

Writing is hard, hard work; that's just the way it is.

Writing is a creative process, and you need to have the doors and windows of your mind open so that you have the possibility of change.

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