What I Don't Write Is As Important

I Read About Writers Who Have Routines. They Write At Certain Times Of The Day. I Can't Do That. I Am Always Writing-but In My Head.

I Was A New Person Then, I Knew Things I Had Not Known Before, I Knew Things That You Can Know Only If You Have Been Through What I Had Just Been Through.

None Of Us Seem To Think That We Should Draw A Line Under What Would Be A Satisfactory Amount Of Wealth.

A Professional Writer Is A Joke. You Write Because You Can't Do Anything Else, And Then You Have Another Job.

I Had Been A Girl Of Whom Certain Things Were Expected, None Of Them Too Bad: A Career As A Nurse, For Example; A Sense Of Duty To My Parents; Obedience To The Law And Worship Of Convention. But In One Year Of Being Away From Home, That Girl Had Gone Out Of Existence.
