In 1957, I Decided: Write Or Perish.

We Were Moderate, We Will Never Know What It Is To Spill Out Our Lives.

I Like To Write About Certain Things That If They Are Not Written About Are Not Going To Exist.

I'd Say The Biggest Relationship Is The Repetition Of Certain Themes. I Don't Want To Say "topics," But Certain Points Of Interest.

Amplitude Is A Powerful Quality In Fiction. It Results In Involvement, In Sympathy With The Characters. After A While, A Reader Can't Avoid Being Involved With A Book, Caring About It, Even If It's Not A Particularly Good Book. You're In It, And You're Committed To It.

Hope But Not Enthusiasm Is The Proper State For The Writer.
