[Louis de Bernières is] currently working on another novel, and two short story collections, but is not one of your "method writers" who rise at 5:30 every morning to read their mail, work out at the gym then hammer out their daily 3,000 words. "I only write when I feel moved by the spirit," he declares, and when I mention that many writers insist that the only way is daily hard graft, sorting the gems from the dross, he is unrepentant. "I think that’s against the spirit of art," he remarks, then grins slyly: "And you have to remember that lots of writers are liars. They’ll tell you they work every morning because they want people to think they’ve got a proper job. Actually they’re going shopping or looking at things on the internet."

Peut-ête qu'il n'écrit pas vraiment ses livres, non plus. remarquez, est-ce qu eça ferait vraiment une différence ?
