More From Nadine Gordimer
The Process Of Writing Fiction Is Totally Unconscious. It Comes From What You Are Learning, As You Live, From Within. For Me, All Writing Is A Process Of Discovery. We Are Looking For The Meaning Of Life. No Matter Where You Are, There Are Conflicts And Dramas Everywhere. It Is The Process Of What It Means To Be A Human Being; How You React And Are Reacted Upon, These Inward And Outer Pressures. If You Are Writing With A Direct Cause In Mind, You Are Writing Propaganda. It's Fatal For A Fiction Writer.

Writers Themselves Don't Analyze What They Do; To Analyze Would Be To Look Down While Crossing A Canyon On A Tightrope. To Say This Is Not To Mystify The Process Of Writing But To Make An Image Out Of The Intense Inner Concentration The Writer Must Have To Cross The Chasms Of The Aleatory And Make Them The Word's Own, As An Explorer Plants A Flag.
