Learning from the Great: 5 Useful Habits of Brilliant Writers

1. Stephen King

Stephen King writes 10 pages every day without a break for lunch and regardless of the day of the week. Even holidays are not an exception for him. This is really a lot of text. The result of such a system of work is a huge number of books. Perhaps not everyone likes Stephen King's style, but personally I think some of his books are simply brilliant, not to mention the films made based on these books! "The Green Mile", "Escape from the Shawshank", "Confrontation" — the list can go on and on.

2. Ernest Hemingway

Unlike Stephen King, Hemingway wrote about 500 words a day. He woke up early in the morning to escape the heat and create in peace and quiet. And despite the fact that Hemingway was known for his love of drinking, he said that he never sat down to a book while drunk.

3. Vladimir Nabokov

The author of Lolita liked to create standing up and wrote down his thoughts on cards. This system allowed him to record scenes outside of a certain sequence, and then rearrange them as he pleased. His novel "Ada" took more than 2,000 cards.

4. Truman Capote

The author of Breakfast at Tiffany's claimed to be a completely "horizontal author". He said that he wrote lying in bed in the bedroom or on the sofa in the living room with a cigarette or a cup of coffee. Then, with coffee, he smoothly switched to tea, from tea to sherry, from sherry to martini, and so on until the very end of the day. He wrote the first drafts of all his creations in pencil, for the third draft Capote used a typewriter, but at the same time he also worked in bed with this very typewriter on his lap.

5. Philip Roth

The author of "Conspiracy against America" likes to work standing up and walk in circles. He claimed to have walked about half a mile to write each page. The writer separates his personal life from work — Philip never wrote where he lived, and specially built his studio away from home.
