Nothing is better than waking up in the morning and being excited to go into work.

From 7 in the morning to 11 at night, I was reading. I don't think one can find any other time in one's life to be left alone so much to read in peace like that.

It really means a lot that I won the gold medal - but I woke up the next morning expecting to feel different. I felt the same.

I often write either really early in the morning, or really late at night.
