Who really said this?

Question:"I hate to write, but I love to have written."

I think it was Pearl S. Buck, but most places where I look on the Internet attributes the quote to someone else.

I need the definitive answer, not just conjecture or common opinion.

Answers:
Robert Louis Stevenson

Robert died in 1894, and Pearl S. Buck was not born until 1892. He is the earliest that I found on many websites that has been attributed to that quote. I was unable to find the exact year he said it.
