The WD Anna Quindlen Interview

quindlen.jpgBonus interview today! Only I didn’t conduct this one. Maria Schneider at Writers Digest spoke with novelist and columnist Anna Quindlen about her own particular writer’s life:

Is there any difference in your mental state depending on whether you’re writing journalism or writing fiction?
The only difference is that you can get rid of the column. It’s a little like staying at a hotel; you get used to the shape of the room, and then you’re gone. With a novel you move into town and stay for a long time. That’s both comforting and terrifying. With the column you get immediate gratification—and up-to-the-minute hate mail.

More of her thoughts and quirks and history here.
