He names Adrian Lester, star of Hustle.

“I hate writing, I love having written.” - Dorothy Parker, and also you
Sitting in front of a blank page and feeling nothing.
...Except panic and low-key despair.
Legitimately not being sure if what you've written came from you or was something you'd read before.
"This is too good. Did I really do this?"

Sharing your writing with other people.
...And, then, the torture of having to watch people AS they read your work.

11 Reasons Terry Pratchett Is A Literary Genius
Posted by Unknown on Tuesday, September 01, 2015
“Fantasy is an exercise bicycle for the mind. It might not take you anywhere, but it tones up the muscles that can.”

Many writers are excellent world builders; it's sort of a requirement in good fantasy literature. Terry Pratchett, however, ranks among the best. Discworld is engrossingly sprawling and feels real — just like in our world, there are laws governing Discworld that make it feel less like pure fantasy and more like a land we all missed out on being born in through sheer chance.

Despite how complex and intricate Discworld is, the books are accessible to any new reader — because you can pick up any of them and dive right in. Imagine trying to do that with Game of Thrones or The Lord of the Rings (both excellent series that I adore).
If you like to have your chronology in order, some devoted readers have created a map that suggests starting points and reading order.
