Quote

I have more ideas than I'll ever be able to write in five lifetimes.

I've been writing, in one way or another, for as long as I can remember.

I am writing more than I have ever done. My life has come back to me in the most extraordinary way.

I've always been a writer. I hope to continue to write books until I can't anymore.

Most writers can write three times as many books as I have and still live a life.

For me, writing has always come out of living a fairly to-the-bone kind of life, just really being present to a lot of life. The writing has been really a byproduct of that.

I guess you could say I've been writing all my life.

It's the hardest thing in the world to dedicate to writing, but if you do that even once a week, after six months or a year you'll have something substantial.

I've written a lot of books now; I've been published for over 30 years. I hope with every book I learn something new, and with every new novel I try to improve the process of writing.

I go through periods of not writing. Until there's something I can't find in the world that I need, so I write.
