Andrea Barrett, on writing:


I've never known a writer who didn't feel ill at ease in the world.
We all feel unhoused in some sense.
That's part of why we write.
We feel we don't fit in, that this world is not our world, that though we may move in it, were not of it.
You don't need to write a novel if you feel at home in the world.
