Too Much Self-regard Has Never Struck Me

I Am A Driven Writer. I Feel Guilty If I Don't Write, Not Self-indulgent If I Do.

The Art Of Fiction Is One Of Constant Seduction. You Must Persuade The Reader On Page 1 To Start Reading - On Page 50, Or Page 150 And Yes, On Page 850.

We Can Only Know What We Can Truly Imagine. Finally What We See Comes From Ourselves.

Obviously I Find Women More Interesting Than Men To Write About.

The Real Writer Is One Who Really Writes. Talent Is An Invention Like Phlogiston After The Fact Of Fire. Work Is Its Own Cure. You Have To Like It Better Than Being Loved.
