A wise man once said the years start coming and they don’t stop coming,
“fiction writing can be a blast when you set aside debilitating notions of perfection and just dive headlong into the creative process.”

“This is the terrible thing about learning everything from books—sometimes you don’t know how to say the words. You know the ideas, but you cannot discuss them with people with any confidence. And so you stay silent. It is the curse of the autodidact. Or “autodidiact,” as I said, on the same shameful day. Oh, that was a conversation that went so wrong.”

“You've got to look out for number one. If you're really worried about not being spoiled, just pound on through that book guys. Just read the shit out of it.”

“I think there are two types of writers, the architects and the gardeners. The architects plan everything ahead of time, like an architect building a house. They know how many rooms are going to be in the house, what kind of roof they're going to have, where the wires are going to run, what kind of plumbing there's going to be. They have the whole thing designed and blueprinted out before they even nail the first board up. The gardeners dig a hole, drop in a seed and water it. They kind of know what seed it is, they know if planted a fantasy seed or mystery seed or whatever. But as the plant comes up and they water it, they don't know how many branches it's going to have, they find out as it grows. And I'm much more a gardener than an architect.”

“She doesn’t like the makeup, either. “I once nearly blinded myself with a mascara brush,” she says, looking querulously at my eyeliner. I don’t want to point out that that says far more about her than it does about me. She might as well be telling me a story of how she once confused Push for Pull on a door, then banning me from using doors again—“Lest you also be betrayed by doors.”
