When I look in the mirror, this is a very close approximation of what I see.
I write nothing every day.
“ There is a difference [between originality and creativity], isn’t there? You can write a story where you’ve created something but it’s like a million other stories. Gordon [Lish] used to ask us in his workshop, why would you want to add to what’s already in the world? Don’t we want to make something new? Of course you want to do something new. That’s originality. It’s not enough to be creative. Anybody can be creative. ”
