I can't write the book I want to write, but I can and will write the book I am capable of writing.
Ann PatchettIf you want to write and can't figure out how to do it, try this: Pick an amount of time to sit at your desk every day. Start with twenty minutes, say, and work up as quickly as possible to as much time as you can spare. Do you really want to write? Sit for two hours a day.
Ann PatchettSome people need a huge amount of attention, and they are worthy of that attention, and they're still exhausting.
