Boredom, as any child knows, is the soil for daydreaming, for imagination. Every writer is a writer because they were bored—as a kid, in college, at work. Boredom isn’t the end, it’s just a phase of the process—often the one right before a breakthrough we can only outwait it.

I realized that I’ve read this before.

Funny when he said it’s American to not like revising and compares it to the constitution.

And all the examples that has to do with everyday revising (jk Rowling saying dumbledore is gay, revising physics numbers to get ones that seem right), etc etc
