I'm very unhappy when I'm not writing.

I am always writing. It is not always good, but if I am writing, I am usually happy.

I hardly ever write when I'm just feeling great.

I'm very unhappy about my entire life if my writing is going wrong.

I'm never more miserable than when I write, and never more happy than having finished and having it sitting in front of me.

I love writing, and I am never as happy as when I have a week, a month - three months - with nothing to do but write.

I'm less crazy and unhappy when I'm writing.

I don't do all that well in the writerly world. I'm happier being outside the flow.

I can't not write, if I don't then I get really depressed.
