All The Information You Need Can Be

I Focus On Characters As Individuals With Attitudes And Write Each Scene From A Particular Character's Point Of View. That Way, Even Narrative Passages Take On The Character's Sound. I Don't Want The Reader To Be Aware Of Me, Writing.

I Don't Believe In Writer's Block Or Waiting For Inspiration. If You're A Writer, You Sit Down And Write.

I Try To Leave Out The Parts Readers Skip.

Really, When I Write A Book I'm The Only One I Have To Please. That's The Beauty Of Writing A Book Instead Of A Screenplay.

I Still Read Hemingway. I Still Read His Short Stories Because They're So Good. He Doesn't Waste Any Words.
