I don't want my writing to be work to read. My main goal is completely shameless entertainment. I want people to smile and giggle and enjoy the book. I'm not trying to save the world through literature.

My house is filled with books, most of which I have read, some of which I intend to eventually get to. I'm always reading at least one work of fiction and one work of non-fiction simultaneously. Whatever mood I'm in, there's always a book nearby to suit it.

Occasionally I find a travel book that is both illuminating and entertaining, where vivid writing and research replace self-indulgence and sloppy prose.

I want my readers to feel, to think, sometimes to laugh. But most of all I want them to enjoy a good read.

I tend to mostly take the day off from working on Sundays, but I do spend some time reading. Mostly what I'm picking up is what's in stores. I really do love to read fiction from the last year or two.

I read a lot when I'm travelling and always have a couple of books on the go.

I usually have two or three books on the go at the same time. If I'm in different moods, I want to read different things.

Books in general are great, but I'm a fiction lover, and I will continue to do it.

I don't normally have time to read, so when I go away I like to take a few books.

Listen, I wrote 10 unsuccessful books before I broke through, so I'm looking all the time to keep my books fascinating. I want to write what people want to read, not push any message.
