Coming from Canada, being a writer and Jewish as well, I have impeccable paranoia credentials.
Mordecai Richler
The process hasn't changed, but the writer has developed. I still get up every morning and go to work.
Mordecai Richler
One likes to think one grows as a writer as one ages, else all you get is an "old" young writer. Beyond that is the changing landscape of the universe and the stories I choose to tell.
Raymond E. Feist
It's commonly said that people who've been ill in childhood and who've had an upset education never really regret that they do. It means that you don't look at the world in the way that other people do, and if you were inclined to be a writer, that's a help.
John Keegan
A literary critic is someone who can't write, but who loves to show he would have been a wonderful writer if only he could!
Brian Lumley
Without the faintest possibility of finding a job, I decided to devote myself to literature: it was about time to find out what I was worth as a writer.
Jose Saramago
I should think just about every young writer - which I was at the time - would be influenced by HPL. As an American writer of weird fiction, he was at the top of the class.
Brian Lumley
One thing I can tell you is this, that I am not a methodical writer.
Wole Soyinka
I'm a writer and this is what I love to do.
Gloria Estefan
As a professional writer of detective stories, I string along with the ballplayers. I love a ball game.
Rex Stout
I'm so disturbed when my women students behave as though they can only read women, or black students behave as though they can only read blacks, or white students behave as though they can only identify with a white writer.
Bell Hooks
Remember Graham Green's dictum that childhood is the bank balance of the writer? I think that all writers feel alienated. Most of us go back to an alienated childhood in some way or another. I know that I do.
John Le Carre
A spy, like a writer, lives outside the mainstream population. He steals his experience through bribes and reconstructs it.
John Le Carre
Every writer knows he is spurious; every fiction writer would rather be credible than authentic.
John Le Carre
Perhaps it would be better not to be a writer, but if you must, then write.
J. B. Priestley
I used to want to be a children's writer, because I would have all these great ideas when I was little, and I'd write them and draw them, and turn them into class.
Jena Malone
The biography of a writer - or even the autobiography - will always have this incompleteness.
V. S. Naipaul
It's a luxury being a writer, because all you ever think about is life.
Amy Tan
I would still like to have that luxury, to be able to just sit and draw for hours and hours and hours. In a way, that's what I do as a writer.
Amy Tan
I have a writer's memory which makes everything worse than maybe it actually was.
Amy Tan
