You can’t think what vain beasts writers are — but Nessa will tell you. I don’t think the artist is so much tempted that way, because all his or her work is done in the open, and is therefore always criticised, whereas a poor wretch of an author keeps all his thoughts in a dark attic in his own brain, and when they come out in print they look so shivering and naked. So for other people to like them is a great encouragement.
