I Don't Think I've Left A Trail

I'd Like To Have The Kind Of House Someday Where A Carousel Horse Wouldn't Be Out Of Place In The Living Room.

I Don't Want To Have My Life Fall Apart For My Work.

I Think It's Dangerous To Think You Know What You're Writing. I Usually Don't Know, And Usually I Just Discover It In The Course Of Writing. I Envy Those Writers Who Can Outline A Beginning, A Middle, And End. Fitzgerald Supposedly Did It. John Irving Does. Bret Easton Ellis Does. But For Me, The Writing Itself Is The Process Of Discovery. I Can't See All That Far Ahead.

The Only Sensible Approach Is Not To Take It Too Seriously. What Counts Is The Writing.

A Creative Writing Program Is Only As Good As Its Teachers, And I Was Fortunate In Having Two Great Writers As Mentors.
