Patrick Rothfuss on procrastination

An excerpt:

My ability to not-do things is considered by many people to be nigh-transcendental in its scope.

Just to give you an idea of what I’m talking about, back when I was in college, I was putting off writing a paper. Now anyone can put off a paper by watching TV or playing a video game, that’s a cakewalk. I, however, was watching snow melt on the sidewalk and occasionally poking at things with a stick. That’s all, and I’d been keeping it up for four hours.

Patrick Rothfuss is the author of the acclaimed fantasy novel The Name of the Wind. Full post on his blog.
