Tove Jansson on writer’s block

“I can’t comprehend why this has to be so hard; one should be able to write just about anything at any time, in a purely professional way.

(I wonder how it is for other people.)

I try all right, but the more I try, the worse it gets, more and more insurmountable and unimaginable that I will come up with anything.”
