Predisposition Is Not Predestination.

Good Stories Are Driven By Conflict, Tension, And High Stakes.

I Love Sports, As All Bostonians Seem To. I Love Books And Movies, As All Writers Seem To.

There Is No Absolute Beginning To Any Story, After All. There Is Only The Moment You Begin Watching.

The Rest-the Vast Majority, Tens Of Thousands Of Days-are Unremarkable, Repetitive, Even Monotonous. We Glide Through Them Then Instantly Forget Them. We Tend Not To Think About This Arithmetic When We Look Back On Our Lives. We Remember The Handful Of Big Days And Throw Away The Rest. We Organize Our Long, Shapeless Lives Into Tidy Little Stories...but Our Lives Are Mostly Made Up Of Junk, Of Ordinary, Forgettable Days, And 'the End' Is Never The End.

I Don't Ever Write With A Particular Audience In Mind. I Just Write Books That Please Me.
