Orwell Has Always Been A

I Was A Political Journalist; I Came To Writing Novels Through An Interest In Politics And Power.

Politics? Boring? Politics Is History On The Wing! What Other Sphere Of Human Activity Calls Forth All That Is Most Noble In Men's Souls, And All That Is Most Base? Or Has Such Excitement? Or More Vividly Exposes Our Strengths And Weaknesses? Boring? You Might As Well Say That Life Itself Is Boring!

Of All Human Activities, Writing Is The One For Which It Is Easiest To Find Excuses Not To Begin – The Desk’s Too Big, The Desk’s Too Small, There’s Too Much Noise, There’s Too Much Quiet, It’s Too Hot, Too Cold, Too Early, Too Late. I Had Learned Over The Years To Ignore Them All, And Simply To Start.

Orwell Has Always Been A Huge Influence On Me.

Storytelling Has A Narcotic Power.
