...Why Karl Ove Knausgaard Can’t Stop Writing
“I have to write—maybe I can write for 20 more years, that’s maybe four or five novels; and that’s not much, so I can’t waste my time. I know where my fascinations lie, I try to go there. You can write about anything—you don’t need a subject or a story. You can just write, everything will show itself, the story will come and the things you are really interested in will be in the book, no matter what you are writing about.” He lights another Chesterfield and adds, “I’m not looking for something to write about, ever. If it is valuable, it will be inside of me, so I’ll write about it one day.”
