Hemingway: I did not know how I would ever write anything as long as a novel

“Since I had started to break down all my writing and get rid of all facility and try to make instead of describe, writing had been wonderful to do. But it was very difficult, and I did not know how I would ever write anything as long as a novel. It often took me a full morning of work to write a paragraph.”

~ Ernest Hemingway in A Moveable Feast
