fb i never met a writer i didn't like i never met a book i don't like flo bear is credited with saying i think this is a paraphrase that a writer must know everything hitler's invasion world stirring the life cycle of a dragon so widely anything that you're interesting enough to really try and tell about it from ever and is a good i like and i'd never repeating this novel that the bears

did people always said that they would like the senate right well i will be viewer write you know you've got a good thing going here and now and i have no desire to talk to repeat nose job at cherry really just interested in trying to do a different thing solved if people say what happened to eugene o'neill wrote in mexican villages and then you start writing your sense now that ice and leno had this instinct of novels they are part of the overall thing that and just needed another little piece of the puzzle and i suppose when i finished my writing career together a lot of pieces of the puzzle and all together that won't be how

i utilized to use and obviously i'm in love with the art i like words i like language or like slang it like for different cultures i read an awful lot i read that i've read breakfast tiffany hundred times in my life i relate to see how that he constructed and it just seems like a perfect little book and i keep trying to teach myself how he did it or how other writers do it sometimes i just looks out of a bookcase and i make lists of vocabulary words

i will write a first draft which is just that brush strokes and then i just and certain words one by one by one by one by one restructure every sentence one by one by one just laboriously over months for me it's pretty chaotic the once steady thing is that i just do it on a daily basis i throw out three quarters of what i write and i re write everything else a hundred times or a thousand times its relentless you know it i have a tendency to do first herbs just day in and day out day in and day out every day in order to get like let's say a four hundred page first draft and then i'll spend six years rewriting those

pages i tell people sometimes ok i want to write a book i've got a jungle and i know that there is a pyramid it an old pyramid hidden in the jungle i got a machete and i start chopping to the jungle trying to find a pyramid and i don't know where the paramedic so i chopped or a year in one direction you know this jungle then i go back and i start chopping in another direction right it's just jungle i go back i start chopping in another direction then i start chopping sideways i chopped sideways you know if i'm lucky i stumble across the pyramid i don't believe in an inspiration i don't believe and genius i don't believe in talent but i really really believe and i think if you do that we're just glided that surprised the world i wonder if they have a chance of song you know working becoming a

piece of paper story there's a moment in the eleventh deal in ending that is honestly everybody is peaceful the sheriff finally lies down in bed and he says now he says welcome ball and someone else's piece the phone rings pick say that it's a start you remember i l this is bernie my mom just escaping from house has gone up and we've got a form another passageway and you have a family it says as the analysts were there is
