For Me, Personally, It Is Very Important

You Don’t Think When You Play Music, You Just Try To Play And Be In It. It Is The Same For Me When The Writing Is Going Really Well. It’s The Same Kind Of Feeling. I’m Just In It. It’s Not The Words, It’s Not The Sentences, I’m Not Aware Of It. Then It’s Good.

I Have A Longing For Fiction - To Try To Believe In It And To Disappear Into It.

Saying What You Believe Others Want To Hear Is, Of Course, A Form Of Lying.

I Think There Are A Lot Of Similarities Between Writing And Music. Music Is Much More Direct And Much More Emotional And That's The Level I Want To Be At When I'm Writing. Writing Is Much More Intellectual And Indirect And Abstract, In A Way.

When I Look Back At What I've Written And Try To Explain It, It Doesn't Help, But It Helps To Be In A Process Of Writing. It's The Same Thing With Reading - You Lose Yourself When You Read As Well. When I Was Younger I Used Literature That Way, It Was Just Escapism, A Tool To Run Away From Things.
