It Is Not A Camera, Or A

... It Struck Me As So Hard To Believe I Was Really Getting What I Wanted; It Was Always Easier To Feel The Lack Of Something Than The Thing Itself.

I Think I Write What's Interesting To Me, And So If I'm Reading I Like To Have A Very Thorough Idea Of A Character In A Book That's By Someone Else.

I've Had People Say Very Dismissive Things About My Books, But I Also Feel Like I Probably Have More Readers Because I'm A Woman. I Mean, More Readers Are Women And More People Who Buy Books Are Women, So I Don't Feel Like It's A Total Disadvantage To Be A Female Writer.

I Feel Like A Lot Of Life Is Distasteful And Embarrassing. And You Just Push Through It. You Fix What You Can, And You Let Time Pass.

Obviously The Bar Is Much Higher Now For A Behavior To Be Scandalous. Social Media Has Really Changed The Way People Live. It's Not A New Impulse; It's Just Being Enacted In A New Way.
