John Scalzi Zitate

What we need to do, as writers, is find out where our market is and adapt to it. I'm not saying that you follow every trend slavishly, but what you see is that, if there is a sea-change in the way that things are being done, then you account for it.

Deutsche Übersetzung

Als Schriftsteller müssen wir herausfinden, wo sich unser Markt befindet, und uns darauf einstellen. Ich sage nicht, dass Sie jeden Trend sklavisch verfolgen, aber was Sie sehen, ist, dass, wenn sich die Art und Weise, wie Dinge getan werden, eine Wende vollzieht, Sie dies erklären.

Auditioning is the most terrifying thing I've ever done. There must have been four or five of them where I completely froze up and walked out of the room. My palms get sweaty just thinking about it.

One of the humbling things about having written more than one novel is the sense that every time you begin, that new empty page does not know who you are.

John Irving

One of the odd things about being a writer is that you never reach a point of certainty, a point of mastery where you can say, 'Right. Now I understand how this is done.'

Jenny Offill

I never believed I could write anything. No way - write a whole story? Figuring out all that plotting and symbolism? How do you foreshadow things?

Some magazines are run from the top down, where the editor-in-chief decides what every article is going to be and who's going to write them, and then they're doled out. My idea is to do it the opposite way, to do it from the bottom up.
