Deutsche Übersetzung

Der Akt des Schreibens ist ein Weg, sich selbst dazu zu bringen, etwas zu enthüllen, das Sie niemals bewusst in die Welt setzen würden. Manchmal bin ich schockiert über die tief persönlichen Dinge, die ich in Bücher gesteckt habe, ohne es zu merken.

I guess the thing I would say most fervently is that your original impulse to write something is an impulse you should trust, and that if it doesn't work on the first draft, which it hardly ever does, the commitment to revising ought to be something you embrace really early. And to revise and revise and revise.
