Text Quotes
Writing is work. It takes a lot of contemplation, concentration, and out-and-out sweat. People tend to romanticize it, that somehow your work appears by benefit of some mystical external force. In reality, to be a writer, you have to sit down and write. It’s work, and often it’s hard work.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) I plan less and less. It’s a great benefit of writing lots, that you get good at holding long narratives in your head like a virtual space.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) One thing that’s really delightful is my books tend to attract people who are funny, so I get the benefit of people writing me with things that crack me up.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) I know the benefits of having a really great improv show are amazing because it was this one rare and fleeting thing that was incredible, but the risk just didn’t appeal to me. I liked the control of sitting down and writing things.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) Being a journalist, being exposed to the world, to social injustice, to intolerance, growing up here, under apartheid, benefitting from that, has all shaped who I am and what my passions are, and of course that’s going to come through in my writing.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) There is not now, nor I suspect will there ever be, a le Carre novel with ninjas in it. Most serious novelists are wary of including ninjas in their writing. That’s a shame, because many much-admired works of modern fiction could benefit from a few.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) The benefit of this kind of outlining is that you discover a story’s flaws before you invest a lot of time writing the first draft, and it’s almost impossible to get stuck at a difficult chapter, because you’ve already done the work to push through those kinds of blocks.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) I can’t imagine myself outside any kind of social or political involvement. Yes, I’m a writer, but I live in this world, and my writing doesn’t exist on a separate level. And if people know who I am and read my books, well, good; that way, if I have something more to say, then everyone benefits.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) For notes related to books I’m writing, I’ve wondered whether I should organize my notes better, but I do find that the action or scrolling through them and seeing odd juxtapositions of ideas helps to stimulate my own ideas and creativity. I worry that if I kept the notes in a highly-structured way, I might lose some of these benefits.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) Writers when they’re writing live in a spooky, clamorous silence, a state somewhat like the advanced stages of prayer but without prayer’s calming benefits.  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes) Any doctor will admit that any drug can have side effects, and that writing a prescription involves weighing the potential benefits against the risks  (Benefits Of Writing Quotes)
