Great Quotations: Ani DiFranco

Videos by American Songwriter

“The kid pretty much saps all my writing time. That’s really different for me. I’m pouring all my time and creativity into hanging out with a baby, I don’t have any left for making songs. It’s sort of cool, in my more patient moments, to have to save it up. There’s been rare occasions when my daughter and I are apart. I treat that like a songwriting boot camp….It’s a much more chilled out way to create than I’ve known in the past.”
