Anyone Who's Really Interested In Anything Spends

The Fact Is That In This Day And Age I Don't Think Any Novelist Can Assume That A Book Will Get Attention.

It Is Not A Camera, Or A Reporter That Makes Something Real And Genuine; More Often A Camera Or A Reporter Does The Opposite.

I Think I Write What's Interesting To Me, And So If I'm Reading I Like To Have A Very Thorough Idea Of A Character In A Book That's By Someone Else.

..and I Thought How Liking A Boy Was Just The Same As Believing You Wanted To Know A Secret - Everything Was Better When You Were Denied And Could Feel Tormented By Curiousity Or Loneliness. But The Moment Of Something Happening Was Treacherous. It Was Just So Tiring To Have To Worry About Whether Your Face Was Peeling, Or To Have To Laugh At Stories That Weren’t Funny.

Personally, I Have Never Wished I Were A Male Novelist.
