Ah, But Being In Love Made You

What Do You Want? What Are You Willing To Give Up To Get It? Writing Requires You Make Sacrifices. Be Prepared To Work Hard To Be A Writer.

Life Was Precious. Life Was Fragile. Here One Moment, Gone The Next. Every Second Should Be Milked For All It's Worth Because You Never Know When The Bottom Was Going To Drop Out.

Should Men And Women Be Equal In All Things? Absolutely. But I'm Old-fashioned In That I Like The Differences Between The Sexes. My Male Characters Are Neither Neanderthals Nor Prince Charmings. They're Flawed.

Be Prepared To Work Hard To Be A Writer.

I Have No Personal Knowledge Of, Or Experience With, Paramilitary Hate Groups, Or Heart Transplantation, Or Escapees From Maximum Security Prisons, Or What It's Like To Be Profoundly Deaf. But I've Written About All These Topics, And The Books Became Bestsellers. I Figure That If Something Interests Me, There's A Reasonably Good Chance That It's Going To Interest The Reader, Too. As I Approach My Keyboard Each Day, I Remind Myself To Have A Good Time - As Good A Time As One Can Have Doing The Hardest Work There Is.
