You Can’t Pick Up And Leave Everything

Listen She Said, Everything Ends, Every Single Relationship You Will Ever Have In Your Lifetime Is Going To End.... I'll Die, You'll Die, You'll Get Tired Of Each Other. You Don't Always Know How It's Going To Happen, But It Is Always Going To Happen. So Stop Trying To Make Everything Permanent, It Doesn't Work. I Want You To Go Out There And Find Some Nice Man You Have No Intention Of Spending The Rest Of Your Life With. You Can Be Very, Very Happy With People You Aren't Going To Marry.

Sometimes Love Does Not Have The Most Honorable Beginnings, And The Endings, The Endings Will Break You In Half. It's Everything In Between We Live For.

If What We Want To Do Is Promote Reading And Writing And Publishing And Making Sure This Is A Business That Keeps Going - Because It Is A Business! It's Not Just An Art - Then We Have To Take Responsibility. I Get Sort Of Crazy And Frothy When I Think About This. It Really Matters.

I Love A Large Cast Of Characters. That's The Way Life Is: It's Flooded With People And We Keep Them All Straight.

I Think, If You Want To Grow A Novelist, For That Person To Have A Lot Of Boring Time Trying To Entertain Themselves Is Very Important.
