The Daily Writing Routines of Great Writers (Maria Popova): ● "When I'm really working I don't like to go out or have anybody to dinner, because then I lose the hour. If I don't have the hour, and start the next day with just some bad pages and nowhere to go, I'm in low spirits" -Joan Didion ● "A writer who waits for ideal conditions under which to work will die without putting a word on paper." -E.B. White ● "The desk in the room, near the bed, with a good light, midnight till dawn, a drink when you get tired, preferably at home, but if you have no home, make a home out of your hotel room or motel room or pad: peace." - Jack Kerouac Bird by Bird: Some Instructions on Writing and Life (Anne Lamott): ● "Often when you sit down to write, what you have in mind is an autobiographical novel about your childhood, or a play about the immigrant experience, or a history of--oh, say--say women. But this is like trying to scale a glacier." -Anne Lamott ● "E.L. Doctorow once said that 'writing a novel is like driving a car at night. You can see only as far as your headlights, but you can make the whole trip that way.' You don't have to see where you're going, you don't have to see your destination or everything you will pass along the way. You just have to see two or three feet ahead of you. This is right up there with the best advice about writing." -Anne Lamott, E.L. Doctorow ● "Very few writers really know what they are doing until they've done it." -Anne Lamott Zen in the Art of Writing (Ray Bradbury): ● "The faster you blurt, the more swiftly you write, the more honest you are. In hesitation is thought." -Ray Bradbury ● "How do you commence to start to begin an almost new king of writing, to terrify and scare? You stumble into it, mostly. You don't know what you're doing, and suddenly, it's done." -Ray Bradbury ● "I was beginning to see a pattern in the list, in these words that I had simply flung forth on paper, trusting my subconscious to give bread, as it were, to the birds." - Ray Bradbury Quotes 1. "Writing isn't an easy process, so do not pretend like it is." 2. "Whatever I'm writing is never completely finished, just more polished that before." 3. "My writing takes me a lot time to complete and a lot of focus and criticism." I co-authored this post with: Connor McAveney, Vincent Beggarly, and Adam Eddahir |
