A Novel Is Like A Sausage. You

A Novel Is Like A Sausage. You Might Like The Final Taste But You Don't Want To See How It Was Made.

I Love Stories. When I'm Writing, What I Pretend Subconsciously Is That We're Cavemen, We're Sitting Around The Fire, And I'm Telling You Stories. If I Bore You, You're Probably Going To Pick Up A Big Club And Hit Me Over The Head.

Writers Always Say, 'i Always Knew I Wanted To Be A Writer; When I Was A Three-month-old Foetus A Pen Formed In My Hand And I Began To Scratch My First Story On The Inside Of My Mother's Womb.' I Started Later, In My Early Twenties.

When You Like Something And You're Pretty Good At It And You Can Make A Living Doing It, You Don't Ask Why. You Just Count Your Blessings And Go With It.

Writing A Novel In General Is Like Trying To Reach A Mountain Top You'll Never Quite Reach - So You Try Again And Maybe Get A Little Closer.
