“A writer is somebody for whom writing is more difficult than it is for other people.”
~Thomas Mann, Essays of Three Decades, 1947
My 2 favorite are as follows:”If you can’t annoy somebody, there is little point in writing.” Kingsley Amis; and “Writing is easy. All you do is stare at a blank sheet of paper until drops of blood form on your forehead.” Gene Fowler
And then there’s the advice of Peter De Vries: “Every novel should have a beginning, a muddle, and an end.”
