From the July/August 2010 print edition of Poets&Writers:
“If you are working on a collection of erotic e-mails addressed to members of the Republican congressional leadership team and composed in iambic pentameter (as I am), you might want to go with self-publication.”
Steve Almond’s Self-Publishing 101
From the Financial Times Q&A with Jose Saramago, 2009
Q. What is your daily writing routine?
A. I write two pages. And then I read and read and read.
One of the paradoxes of writing is that when you write non-fiction everyone tries to prove that it’s wrong, and when you publish fiction, everyone tries to see the truth in it.
~ Scarlett Thomas Our Tragic Universe (2010)
