| saunaboy Oct 31 | From a Paul Auster interview, 2003. Each book I've written has started off with what I'd call a buzz in the head. A certain kind of music or rhythm, a tone. Most of the effort involved in writing a novel for me is trying to remain faithful to that buzz, that rhythm. It's a highly intuitive business. You can't justify it or defend it rationally, but you know when you've struck a wrong note, and you're usually pretty certain when you've hit the right one. | | | | | You can also reply to this email to leave a comment. | | | | |
