To Me, A Book Is A Book,

I Won't Read A Book That Starts With A Description Of The Weather. I Don't Read Books Over 300 Pages, Though I'll Make An Exception For Don Delillo.

I Don't Believe In Writer's Block. I Don't Know What That Is. There Are Just Certain Little Areas That I Know I'm Going To Get Through. It's Just A Matter Of Finding A Way.

I Don't Get In A Position To Be Frightened. I Don't Do Anything Dangerous, And I Always Pay My Bills.

I Think Any Writer Is A Fool If He Doesn't Do It For Money. There Needs To Be Some Kind Of Incentive In Addition To The Project. It All Goes Together. It's Fun To Sit There And Think Of Characters And Get Them Into Action, Then Be Paid For It. I Can't Believe It When Writers Tell Me 'i Don't Want To Show My Work To Anybody'.

I Don't Judge In My Books. I Don't Have To Have The Antagonist Get Shot Or The Protagonist Win. It's Just How It Comes Out. I'm Just Telling A Story.
