I write probably 80 percent of my stuff over the winter.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I mostly write on my own, walking, outside.
Mostly, I don't write overtly personal stuff.
I write a good amount. I've been gathering up a backlog of stuff and maybe I'll do something with it someday, but I don't want to talk about it just yet because that would jinx it.
Seventy percent of what I write, I throw out. I can write very easily, but writing original things is the hard bit.
Ever since I was a girl, I have written about one to five pages every day - on napkins, on scrap paper, in notebooks and tablets, on the walls in my room as a teenager, and in orange paint on the cheap white plastic blinds in my room.
I do a lot of writing. People don't actually know how much writing really I do.
For me, writing is 75 percent procrastinating and 25 percent actually sitting down and working.
I write about eight hours a day, and I throw away most of what I write.
I go in and out of season. I won't write for months, and then all of a sudden, I'll write like I've got a fever.
I write mostly in my office in the shed outside at home, but it can get very cold. I write best on the train, among people. As a writer you spend so much time away from people.
