Item description from seller

Fine content Autograph Quote within an A.L.S. Signed "Alan Stilltoe", 4to. 1 page, on loose-leaf lined paper with binder punch holes, Wittersham, Kent, England, September 5th 1974. In full: "What inspires me to work? I don't work. I write. I write because I can't do anything else - that is to say because I have something to say, stories to tell and novels to write, and must write because I was born with no alternative but to write . Your question is very difficult to answer - almost impossible, I think. I would need ten years to think it over and write a book about it, and I don't think I will ever get that much time. Never Mind. All my best wishes to you and your class - and my thanks for taking an interest in what I have written". Fine. English writer and one of the so-called "Angry Young Men" of the 1950's.
