Why does one always ask a writer why they stopped? I am sure everyone finds in any drawer a few dear poems (Writer Quotes)
It is impossible to read for pleasure from something to which you are both father and mother, born in such travail that the writer despises the thing that enslaved him (Writer Quotes)
A writer never reads his work. For him, it is the unreadable, a secret, and he cannot remain face to face with it. A secret, because he is separated from it (Writer Quotes)
For your born writer, nothing is so healing as the realization that he has come upon the right word (Writer Quotes)
Writing, I think, is not apart from living. Writing is a kind of double living. The writer experiences everything twice. Once in reality and once in that mirror which waits always before or behind (Writer Quotes)
If you like to read, sometimes it’s interesting just to go and see what the reality is, of the word, of the seedy or not so seedy fiction writer, the drunk or sober poet... Sometimes you can go looking for illumination (Writer Quotes)
A workshop is a way of renting an audience, and making sure you’re communicating what you think you’re communicating. It’s so easy as a young writer to think you’re been very clear when in fact you haven’t (Writer Quotes)
No... a novel is a long business. I’m a slow writer, even when I’m doing very well I write slowly (Writer Quotes)
The nice thing about being a writer is that you can make magic happen without learning tricks (Writer Quotes)
Your first duty as a writer is to write to please yourself. And you have no duty towards anyone else (Writer Quotes)

I always tell people that I became a writer not because I went to school but because my mother took me to the library. I wanted to become a writer so I could see my name in the card catalog (Writer Quotes)
I have to understand what my strengths and limitations are, and work from a true place. I try to do this as best I can while still protecting my writer self, which more than ever needs privacy (Writer Quotes)
Sit down and put down everything that comes into your head and then you’re a writer. But an author is one who can judge his own stuff’s worth, without pity, and destroy most of it (Writer Quotes)
I think the only boundaries are individual and personal. A writer should be free to write about anything he or she wants to, including the twin towers. I have made small references to 9/11 in my past two books (Writer Quotes)
I’ve had aunts and uncles who not only haven’t read my books but could hardly believe that I was a writer (Writer Quotes)
I’m not a lyric writer to make statements. What I enjoy doing is making paintings with lyrics, creating colorful images. I think that’s more what entertainment and music should be (Writer Quotes)
A prose writer gets tired of writing prose, and wants to be a poet. So he begins every line with a capital letter, and keeps on writing prose (Writer Quotes)
I think male roles are generally much better written. So for actresses, we’re always dealing with trying to inject a role with more truth than the writer possibly had in mind (Writer Quotes)
I could tell it was a popular move as a writer to walk down the bass lines while you were writing a song (Writer Quotes)
Anyone can write one book: even politicians do it. Starting a second book reveals an intention to be a professional writer (Writer Quotes)
What no wife of a writer can ever understand is that a writer is working when he’s staring out of the window (Writer Quotes)
A writer writes not because he is educated but because he is driven by the need to communicate. Behind the need to communicate is the need to share. Behind the need to share is the need to be understood (Writer Quotes)
The only reason for being a professional writer is that you can’t help it (Writer Quotes)
The writer wants to be understood much more than he wants to be respected or praised or even loved. And that, perhaps, is what makes him different from others (Writer Quotes)
The main engagement of the writer is towards truthfulness; therefore he must keep his mind and his judgment free (Writer Quotes)
If my career continues along its current arc, people will probably look at me and see a writer who is obsessed with the relationship between rich and poor and with how the rich somehow or other always manage to betray the poor, even when they don’t mean to (Writer Quotes)
Nowadays I’m not even sure if newspapers take into account whether a person is a good writer (Writer Quotes)
I really enjoy the writing process because I can do it from my house. I can create these characters and take them in the different directions that I want to take them. You have a lot of freedom as a writer (Writer Quotes)
If an ordinary person is silent, it may be a tactical maneuver. If a writer is silent, he is lying (Writer Quotes)
