During an interview with Lit Hub‘s Thresholds podcast, author Sam Lipsyte talks about rediscovering a passion for writing and the revelation that if you realize nobody cares, then you can do the thing that makes you happy. “Don’t think about a career,” he says. “Just think about the next sentence in this book. This could be the last thing you write: this sentence, this story, this novel, this could be the last thing…Just stay where you are, and understand this could be it. Don’t hoard. Just put everything into it.”
