"It's just a matter of trial and error. You try something, it doesn't work. You try it another way, maybe it works even less well, or maybe it works a little bit better. It really is the dark room that Henry James describes. It's a sort of groping, and continuously trying things out, and understanding why something fails. The key is to try to understand what are the elements that are failing, and why, and then you move on to the next draft with a little bit more of clarity."
