I Will Say I Am The Sum

Whenever I Have Had To Write Fiction, I've Always Had To Invent A Character Who Roughly Has My Background.

Whatever Extra There Is In Me At Any Given Moment Isn't Fully Formed. I Am Hardly Aware Of It; It Awaits The Next Book. It Will - With Luck - Come To Me During The Actual Writing, And It Will Take Me By Surprise

If A Writer Doesn't Generate Hostility, He Is Dead.

Everybody Is Interesting For An Hour, But Few People Can Last More Than Two.

An Autobiography Can Distort; Facts Can Be Realigned. But Fiction Never Lies: It Reveals The Writer Totally.
