More From Jodi Picoult

The secret to writing is just to write. write every day. never stop writing. write on every surface you see; write on people on the street. when the cops come to arrest you, write on the cops. write on the police car. write on the judge. i'm in jail forever now, and the prison cell walls are completely covered with my writing, and i keep writing on the writing i wrote. that's my method.
Wall Writing Cells
Go where the pleasure is in your writing. go where the pain is. write the book you would like to read. write the book you have been trying to find but have not found. but write. and remember, there are no rules for our profession. ignore rules. ignore what i say here if it doesn't help you. do it your own way. every writer knows fear and discouragement. just write.the world is crying for new writing. it is crying for fresh and original voices and new characters and new stories. if you won't write the classics of tomorrow, well, we will not have any.
Pain Book Character
The process of writing a book is infinitely more important than the book that is completed as a result of the writing, let alone the success or failure that book may have after it is written . . . the book is merely a symbol of the writing. in writing the book, i am living. i am growing. i am tapping myself. i am changing. the process is the product.
Book Writing Important
The answer is never the answer. what's really interesting is the mystery. if you seek the mystery instead of the answer, you'll always be seeking. i've never seen anybody really find the answer, but they think they have. so they stop thinking. but the job is to seek mystery, evoke mystery, plant a garden in which strange plants grow and mysteries bloom. the need for mystery is greater than the need for an answer.

Love what you do, or don't do it. don't make a choice of any kind, whether in career or in life, just because it pleases others or because it ranks high on someone else's scale of achievement...make the choice to do something because it engages your heart as well as your mind. make the choice because it engages all of you.

Heart Men Shapes
A woman's whole life is a history of the affections. the heart is her world: it is there her ambition strives for empire; it is there her avarice seeks for hidden treasures. she sends forth her sympathies on adventure; she embarks her whole soul on the traffic of affection; and if shipwrecked, her case is hopeless — for it is a bankruptcy of the heart.
