...it Is How A Person Goes About

I Love Movies. Movies Have Influenced Me As A Writer.

I Would Change Very Little Because I Have Been Very, Very Fortunate. A Lot Of Things Fell Into Place For Me Simply By Happenstance. When That Happens You Don't Really Want To Change Anything, Even If You Could. Editorially My Regrets Are Few And For The Most Part Minor. I Look Back On My First Published Book And Think I Held On To It Too Long, Babied It Too Long.

You Can't Patch A Wounded Soul With A Band-aid.

Deep In My Heart It Still Feels Like I'm A Journalist Even Though I Haven't Worked For A Paper And Carried A Press Pass For 14 Years.

When I Am So Intensely Involved With Writing My Books I Don't Like To Reread Them.
