Ich denke, das Schreiben von Literatur sollte Freude bereiten. Worum sollte es sonst gehen? Es ist keine Kernphysik. Es muss eigentlich Spaß machen oder es ist nichts wert.

I'm not an especially male novelist, but I think men are better at writing about men, and the same is true for women. Reading Saul Bellow is a revelation, but he can't write women. There are exceptions, like Marilynne Robinson's 'Gilead,' but generally, I think it's true.
