Women's rights are more important than their ethnic rights.
From Ruth Rendell
I don't like slapdash careless prose, and if I saw myself doing it, I would give up writing altogether.
We, people, are so very, very complicated that no matter how well drawn a fictional character is, they can't get anywhere near as complex as a real person.
I love memory sticks. They seem to me to be magic.
As soon as I know it's about technological things or spies, I lose interest. I want to know what goes on in people's minds.
Reading taught me how to write.
I very much like writing about homosexual relations. I don't quite know why. Perhaps it's because I feel there's still so much to be said about them.
In judging other people's work, particularly short stories, I have noticed how novice writers tell the readers everything about their characters in the first paragraphs, disclose their motives, reveal their recent activities and their future intentions.
While most of the things you've worried about have never happened, it's a different story with the things you haven't worried about. They are the ones that happen.
I think to be driven to want to kill must be such a terrible burden.
