The Underground Worlds of Haruki Murakami newyorker.com

I’m a writer, and I’m writing, but at the same time I feel as though I were reading some exciting, interesting book.
When I’m writing a novel, I wake up around four in the morning and go to my desk and start working.
When I’m not writing, I’m a very ordinary person.
I think I’m just a guy who’s doing what somebody’s got to do, like cleaning gutters or collecting taxes.
If I don’t, or if I don’t want to write something, I don’t write.
