I'm always working on a novel. I do not reveal to others what the subject is, though, because that removes the tension I feel every morning when I wake up and start thinking about what I'm going to write.

Writers need to write. Writers need to read other writers. Writers need to think about writing. Writers need to live the live of a writer.

For me, writing has become my nourishment. So, I like nourishing myself every day. I love the freedom of being a writer. I can work on planes, trains, taxis, on trips, at home--everywhere. That's freedom!
Marie-Louise Damberte
I make sure that I write something every single day, even if I don't use what I write. And I mean every day, even holidays.
