Basically, I just sit in a chair and stare stubbornly at the screen until the words start flowing again. Sometimes it takes weeks, but since I really have no social life to speak of, what else am I going to do with my time?(less)

I also love when my editor sends me the author's copies of the completed book---it's better than Christmas!(less)

The Glamorous Life Of A Writer

As a novelist, the three main questions I get asked are:

1) What’s your writing process?
2) Where do you get your ideas for your books?
3) When was the last time you showered?

Let’s tackle these one at a time.

What’s your writing process?

When I first start a novel, I spend a few weeks picking my nose and staring at the blinking cursor on my laptop screen. Meanwhile, I drink a few gallons of tea, sta Read more of this blog post »

Quotes by Bart Yates  (?)
Quotes are added by the 카지노싸이트 community and are not verified by 카지노싸이트.

“I should probably apologize for how much I swear, but fuck it. I've read that some people think swearing shows a lack of imagination and a limited vocabulary, but sometimes "darn" and "poop" and "oh heck" just don't cut it. Besides, swearing is kind of fun.”
Bart Yates, Leave Myself Behind

“It seems to be that loneliness is a small price to pay for peace and quiet.”
Bart Yates, The Brothers Bishop

“Love attacks. It sneaks up like a pride of lions or a pack of hyenas and eats your heart out while you watch. Love is the bully on the playground who takes your lunch money and gives you a black eye in return, the arsonist who burns your house down with you in it, the witch who lures you into her home with candy and boils you alive for dinner. Love is raw, and violent, and instantaneous. You don’t fall in love; you get trampled by it.”
Bart Yates

“Where does a child of mine get all that hair, I wonder? Arthur’s not exceptionally hirsute, and the men on my side of the family are as bald as potatoes. I must have had an affair with a gorilla before he was born, but you’d think I’d remember something like that, wouldn’t you? ... Be a dear and remind me to leave my brandy flask at home the next time I visit the zoo.”
Bart Yates, The Distance Between Us
