Because suddenly you're off on this great adventure


kills. det kan verkligen döda. ibland. men dave eggers tycker att det är en oumbärlig del av skapande. det är värmande. betyder det att om jag procrastinate så är jag på väg skapa?

"I can only do stuff under deadline," he says, "I have to do it late at night, on caffeine, and in a lot of pain. I need about eight hours of fiddling around for every 1 hour of productive work. But that's the way it is. It doesn't seem worth it if you're writing during the day. It's so safe. Because without the pain, is it art?" He continues on to justify his procrastination. "Procrastination is the creation of an exciting life by manufacturing tension, because suddenly you're off on this great adventure."
