\n

When<\/a> and where<\/a> do you like to write? Are you the same-thing-every-day kind of writer<\/a> or can you write anytime, anywhere?<\/h3>\n

I write at home, in my home office, where I have written all my books. \u00a0Sometimes if things aren\u2019t going well, I\u2019ll take my computer into another room, or even to a coffee house, but mostly I sit at my desk and work. \u00a0It has a view into some bamboo and the neighbor\u2019s wall. \u00a0I\u2019ve taken out the closet and put a daybed in there, sometimes I sit there and work. I work in the morning into the afternoon, starting around ten. I\u2019m generally a creature of habit.<\/p>\n

Do you have any pre-writing rituals<\/a> or habits<\/a> before you sit down to write?<\/h3>\n

I try not to. I think writing rituals push you away from just sitting down and doing it. We make a work of art out of the ritual, and then we have a feeling of having accomplished something when really we\u2019ve accomplished nothing. \u00a0I do my reading in the early morning, an hour or an hour and a half, but it\u2019s important that when I\u2019m ready to write, I stop and immediately get to work. I usually don\u2019t get dressed for a while, not until near lunch time.<\/p>\n

Have you ever experienced a prolonged creative rut<\/a> or a spell of writer\u2019s block<\/a>? How did you get through them?<\/h3>\n

Few writers have not experienced difficulties with their work. I have a million tricks. I try a different voice, a different character\u2019s POV. I do self-hypnosis and interview the character. \u00a0I try writing a different place in the book. \u00a0But I have also put an entire novel aside.<\/p>\n

Deciding on an idea to pursue writing about can be the most challenging aspect for a writer. How do you generate and capture ideas? And how do you come to the point of \u2018this is something I want to write about\u2019?<\/h3>\n

Ideas are the easiest thing. \u00a0It\u2019s finding what you need to express, something that feels rich and urgent and big, that takes time. I start with short short stories\u2014based on a word, an exercise I learned in a long-ago writing group. Then I see which of those short shorts wants to be a longer story. And then something will not be contained by a short story, it screams out for a longer form. We come with all the ingredients inside ourselves\u2014so its handling that material until you discover the thing that hooks into who you are. \u00a0Not your external biography, but your internal drives and obsessions.<\/p>\n

During your career, what have you found to be your least favorite parts of the writing\/publishing process?<\/h3>\n

The long stretch before you begin to publish is pretty sucky. Also there is a time when you get the typeset galleys of a book and you just see everything that\u2019s wrong with it. You forget how much of yourself you packed into every sentence.<\/p>\n

Do you consider writing to be easy? Would you say it comes to you naturally?<\/h3>\n

No. Writing is not easy when you\u2019re doing it right. \u00a0But if it were easy, I\u2019d be bored to death already. \u00a0I like it because there\u2019s no upper end of how good it can be. \u00a0You just keep striving to be better.<\/p>\n

Certain aspects of writing came to me naturally, other aspects I had to learn. Character was always there, conflict, story. But language I had to learn, landscape, sensuality of the prose, good compressed fictional dialogue.<\/p>\n

What books<\/a> or writers<\/a> have most influenced the way you think and the way you write?<\/h3>\n

Wow\u2026 well, I\u2019d say Dickens, and Poe. Doestoyevsky learned from Dickens and Poe, and Doestoyevsky had a huge impact on me. I loved those long-sentence dark, big-emotion writers, inheritors of dostoyevsky, like our \u201cGothics\u201d Faulkner and Joyce Carol Oates<\/a>. \u00a0I was also profoundly influenced by the internal writing of Anais Nin, the seams-showing hijinks of Henry Miller, and the lyricism and sensuality, the human understanding of Lawrence Durrell. \u00a0The imagistic propulsion of Malcolm Lowry\u2019s Under the Volcano<\/em><\/a>. \u00a0Noir is also a big influence, Chandler specifically. My teacher, Kate Braverman and her feverish lyricism. Robert Stone, Joan Didion\u2026Poetry has played a big part in the sound of my prose, especially Dylan Thomas, Anne Sexton, Eliot, even Pound. Joseph Brodsky. Tennessee Williams has been really important to me, the lyricism and romanticism of his fragile characters. And Carl Sandberg, his elemental respect for the common man. Also the ancient Japanese writer Sei Shonagon and her pillow book<\/a>, her astonishing aesthetic.<\/p>\n

What is your advice to aspiring writers<\/a>?<\/h3>\n

Read great writers and try to figure out how they accomplish their effects. Really tear their stuff apart. Try writing a paragraph of theirs, using their style and syntax but your own words. \u00a0Read to grade level. Push yourself. Ask yourself “how is this book affecting my writing?\u201d If it isn\u2019t, you\u2019re reading the wrong books. Write a lot. Keep a notebook. Use better verbs. Vary sentence structure. Learn to write in scenes. I talk about a lot of these things in my Writing Wednesday videos on my Facebook author page\u2014take a look. And never give up.<\/p>\n
