#RIP †
Proust schrieb gerne im Liegen, Hemingway im Stehen. Der britische Journalist Alex Johnson beantwortet in seinem Buch »Schreibwelten« die Fragen, wie, wo und womit Jane Austen, Stephen King, Astrid Lindgren und andere literarische Berühmtheiten ihre Bestseller schrieben. Was lässt sich daraus lernen?
One of my favourite insights from the book (Rooms of Their Own: Where Great Writers Write by Alex Johnson with illustrations by James Oses)...learning that Margaret Atwood sometimes writes while lying down and in a semi-crouching position.
Author Alex Johnson notes: 'Writing lying down or in bed is a common part of many writers' routines. There is even some research that suggests horizontal working is more conducive to creative problem solving than remaining upright.'
Finally - some of us have something in common with one of the greatest writers on the planet!
