“The story I am writing exists, written in absolutely perfect fashion, some place, in the air. All I must do is find it, and copy it.”
“Some writers enjoy writing, I am told. Not me. I enjoy having written.”
“Every story I've written was written because I had to write it. Writing stories is like breathing for me; it is my life.”
“I am not at all in a humor for writing; I must write on till I am.”
“Writing is the art of remembering and forgetting. You must forget what you’ve already written, because if you’re dwelling on your old material you can’t write new material, and you must remember all you’ve written and read, so you are not duplicating already existing writing.”
“I don't do fashion, I AM fashion.”
