The Glamour of Being a Writer

It always defeats me how anyone can imagine writing to be a glamorous profession.
I spend six to eight hours a day at the computer, sometimes longer when a
deadline looms, five or even six days a week. I take far too little exercise
and miss out on sunny days, even when in Spain. And generally wear my
scruffiest, most comfortable clothes while working, so don’t look in the least
bit glamoroous.
