A novel that does not uncover a hitherto unknown segment of existence is immoral. Knowledge is the novel's only morality.

Introverts prefer to write out their feelings, while extroverts prefer to talk them out. Considering that many couples are intro/extrovert pairs, it's a wonder that any of us communicate effectively at all!
Writing is weird.
You make these scratches on paper and they mean something to you. Maybe something very profound. Maybe a shopping list.
But to some, they would be just symbols, squiggles. Nothing. Meaningless.
When I write down my thoughts, they become much clearer to me. I can understand better what I am actually thinking and feeling when I write it all down.
People would argue much less if they had to stop and put their thoughts down, coherently, on paper before they opened their mouths.
I cannot accept the doctrine that in poetry there is a »suspension of belief.« A poet must never make a statement simply because it is sounds poetically exciting; he must also believe it to be true.
W. H. Auden (1907 1973)
Writing is like getting married. One should never commit oneself until one is amazed at one's luck.
Murdoch, Iris (1919)
Irish-born British novelist. The Black Prince, `Bradley Pearson's Foreword', 1974
By writing, I find out what I'm thinking. A clumsy method? Otherwise I'd never find out.
In good writing, the burden of comprehension is on the writer, not on the reader.
This is why so many people fail as writers: They know what they mean to say but others don't.
What young writers should remember is three words clarity, clarity and clarity. So clear it snaps like an icicle in a Norwegian winter.
