Quote

Sometimes I can spend as long revising a manuscript as I spent writing it in the first place.

I always try to read at night, because it gets me kind of tired.

I write in a journal first, briefly. Then read something I've read many times before, for about half an hour, then rework what I wrote the day before.

I'm a voracious reader - I always have a book on the go and read for at least half an hour, usually more, every night.

I love reading but I never last very long because I fall asleep right away.

Most books today seemed to have been written overnight from books read the day before.

I can only write about two or three pages of fiction a day.

I write every day. I'm always in the process of writing my last book, until the next one.

Only occasionally do I read new fiction. Most of my reading is heavily dictated by what I'm writing at the time.
