I Think All Writing Is Done Through

You Are Just In The Middle Of A Struggle With Words Which Are Really Very Stubborn Things, With A Blank Page, With The Damn Thing That You Use To Write With, A Pen Or A Typewriter, And You Forget All About The Reader When You Are Doing That

The Relationship Between Reader And Characters Is Very Difficult. It Is Even More Peculiar Than The Relationship Between The Writer And His Characters.

When I Write, The First Blank Page, Or Any Blank Page, Means Nothing To Me. What Means Something Is A Page That Has Been Filled With Words.

I Am Against The Notion Of Style In Itself

I Know That Many Writers Have Had To Write Under Censorship And Yet Produced Good Novels; For Instance, Cervantes Wrote Don Quixote Under Catholic Censorship.
