[/b][/i] [/font] "When writing goes painfully, when it's hideously difficult, and one feels real despair (ah, the despair, silly as it is, is real!)--then naturally one ought to continue with the work; it would be cowardly to retreat. But when writing goes smoothly--why then one certainly should keep on working, since it would be stupid to stop. Consequently one is always writing or should be writing." (p. 277, Joyce Carol Oates, Journals)
