I find that time constraints actually make me more productive, and "real world" experiences provide a lot of inspiration to write.

I've spent many a day worrying that I will never be able to write again!

I lived in New Mexico until I was seventeen, and honestly I've been homesick ever since I left.

I read letters and journal entries by [Georgia] O'Keeffe (which were infinitely more useful than any critical analysis of her work).

The book [The Dissemblers] officially came out two weeks after my thirtieth birthday...am I still young?

Yet [Georgia O'Keeffe ] always stayed true to her vision, and was at times uncompromising in following the path she saw for herself.
