"I don't feel I write fast. I write……" — Joyce Carol Oates

"I don't feel I write fast. I write in longhand and do so much revision. On the page, it's so old-fashioned. I could write a whole novel on scrap paper, scribbles and things. I keep looking at it and something develops. For me, using a word processor would mean staring at a screen for too many hours."

— Joyce Carol Oates
