I don't think you can write novels on the road. You need a certain stability.

Perhaps it would be better not to be a writer, but if you must, then write.

I just have a thing for writers. Maybe it because I'm just so not a writer.

I don't know about other writers, but for myself, to write I must be relatively quiet - it's very difficult to write with the telephone and the doorbell ringing and conversation going on; I'm not that good a writer to write through all that!

If you want to be a writer, just write. There's no magic to it.

I'm not sure there are too many people who write what I write.

Why do writers write? Because it isn't there.

I never write about the road. I never write about hotels or anything like that.

You write alone, but you write hoping that there will be readers who will connect with what you write, and it's so wonderful and amazing - I can't even tell you - when that actually happens.
