A Peasant That Reads Is A Prince

Many Writers-in-waiting Spend A Lot Of Time Avoiding The Work At Hand. The Most Common Way To Avoid Writing Is By Procrastination. This Is The Writer's Greatest Enemy. There Is Little To Say About It Except That Once You Decide To Write Every Day, You Must Make Yourself Sit At The Desk Or Table For The Required Period Whether Or Not You Are Putting Down Words. Make Yourself Take The Time Even If The Hours Seem Fruitless. Ideally, After A Few Days Or Weeks Of Being Chained To The Desk, You Will Submit To The Story That Must Be Told.

I Believe That A Writer Has To Tell What They Think Is The Truth In A Human Experience. The Truth Of The Human Experience Cannot Escape The Political.

I Write Every Day And I Just Love Doing It. It's Just... It's Just A Wonderful Thing. Some Of My Stories Work, Some Of Them Don't Work. Some Of Them Are Wild And I Love Them, But They Certainly Don't Fit Into Any Kind Of A Normal System That I Know About.

People Don't Understand How Hard It Is To Get Recognized, How Hard It Is To Get People To Read Your Books. How Hard It Is To Get People To Even To Understand What They're Reading When They're Talking To You About Their Books.

I Laugh, That There's A Certain Kind Of Cyclical Nature To Life And That I Don't Have To Worry Because Whatever Isn't There Right Now, It's Coming Back Again.
