I don't write anything if I'm not agreeable and liking it. I'm not one of these slavers who wads up paper. It comes or it doesn't.

Writing is sweat and drudgery most of the time. And you have to love it in order to endure the solitude and the discipline.
What I love is the writing, it's not having written. I like the process of it.
You know what you are best at, and writing is just not my thing, but I like it.
Writing is hard work: it is like doing homework for the rest of your life. You are always chipping away at it.
I'm not that guy who thinks I have all the answers. Writing is a means of communicating, and if enough people say, 'I don't get it,' it's worth looking at.
What I like about writing is the sense of godlike power it gives you.
Good writing is deceptive in that it hides its own artifice - it makes it seem easy.
It's unimaginable to me that I wouldn't write, but it's very imaginable that I won't write for a little while.
You have to write badly to write at all. If it's crappy, I will rewrite it later. But it will be mine. You can hear the resonance of an artist who goes into herself.
I love writing, but I have that E. E. Cummings idea that as long as you stay inside the rules of your own world, it doesn't matter what it is.
