Lucinda Williams
What I do as a songwriter is a constant force in my life, that I'm grateful to have.
Lucinda Williams
I feel a lot more comfortable being me these days. I'm constantly told that my work is good. A lot of fans and a lot of other artists say my songs and albums mean a lot to them. Isn't that what's important?

It's just the more you do it the better you get, or at least that's how I feel in my case. I think it's a combination of confidence and just having done it this long and just learning. I'm always learning. I'm still honing my craft.

Lucinda Williams
I'm always writing ideas down and then I stick em in my pocket and put em in that folder so I don't lose them. Like, somebody might say something, and I'll go, oh that's a good line, and that goes in the folder, too. It's kind of an ongoing process for me.
Lucinda Williams
The more I separate myself from my upbringing, the more I appreciate what it's done for me.
Lucinda Williams
I am trying to get right with God. I'm sort of making a statement about the excessiveness.
Lucinda Williams
I started writing songs, I guess, when I was about 13 or 14, but I didn't know if they were good enough yet or anything.
Lucinda Williams
I started writing more with my voice in mind.
Lucinda Williams

I usually have an idea of how I want a song to sound, but I don't always know how to get there
Lucinda Williams
I've had trouble being in relationships and writing. This has been a real problem for me. I don't know if it's because I'm not free to fantasize or create these fantasy things about other people
Lucinda Williams
I have to try different things to see what works best. Other people get impatient with that.
Lucinda Williams
