Bad Guys Are Not Bad Guys Twenty-four

I Never See My Bad Guys As Simply Bad. They Want Pretty Much The Same Thing That You And I Want: They Want To Be Happy.

I Don't Get In A Position To Be Frightened. I Don't Do Anything Dangerous, And I Always Pay My Bills.

I Used To Be Able To Write Five Pages A Day, Every Day, No Problem. Now A Good Day Is Five Or Four Pages, And That's From 9:30 A.m. Until 6 P.m.

Try Not To Write The Parts That People Skip.

Don't Go Into Great Detail Describing Places And Things, Unless You're ­margaret Atwood And Can Paint Scenes With Language. You Don't Want Descriptions That Bring The Action, The Flow Of The Story, To A Standstill.
