I Don't Believe In Writer's Block. I

I Do Have Fun Writing, And A Long Time Ago, I Told Myself, 'you Got To Have Fun At This, Or It'll Drive You Nuts.'

I've Quit Writing Screenplay [adaptations]. It's Too Much Work. I Don't Look At Writing A Novel As Work, Because I Only Have To Please Myself. I Have A Good Time Sitting Here By Myself, Thinking Up Situations And Characters, Getting Them To Talk - It's So Satisfying. But Screenwriting's Different. You Might Think You're Writing For Yourself, But There Are Too Many Other People To Please.

Everyone Has His Own Sound. I'm Not Going To Presume How To Tell Anybody How To Write.

I Try To Leave Out The Parts Readers Skip.

I Got Halfway Through 'the Girl With The Dragon Tattoo.' I Don't Get It At All. What's The Big Thrill? It's Boring.
