To Write A Damn Good Thriller, You

We Did What Our People Do All The Time, We Told Ourselves Something We Did Was Right And We Found A Way To Justify It, Even Though We Knew It Was Wrong.

I Felt Like I Had Lost Something. But Not Something Silly, Like My Keys Or My Gum; More Like My Arm Or My Foot, Something That Really Mattered. Like Something That I Could Live Without, But Would Make Life Much Harder If It Were Missing. And Life Is Hard Enough. Life Is Hard Enough With Everything We're Given.

There Is No Such Things As God's Word On Earth. Or If There Is It Is Not To Be Found In Books. -then Where Is It To Be Found?- In Love. In The Laughter Of Children. In A Gift Given. In A Life Saved. In The Quiet Of Morning. In The Dead Of Night. In The Sound Of The Ocean, Or The Sound Of A Car. It Can Be Found In Anything, Anywhere. It Is The Fabric Of Our Lives, Our Feelings, The People We Live With, Things We Know To Be Real.

When I Was A Screenwriter, I Was Doing It For Mercenary Reasons.

I Don't Write With An Outline. I Don't Often Know What I'm Going To Do As I'm Writing. And I Do Everything By Feel And By Instinct.
