Ursula K. Le Guin, on being an introvert and a writer:


Hardly anybody ever writes anything nice about introverts.
Extroverts rule.
This is rather odd when you realise that about nineteen writers out of twenty are introverts.
We are being taught to be ashamed of not being 'outgoing'.
But a writer's job is ingoing.

- Ursula K. Le Guin.
