Quote

I like writing historical fiction.

I like being a writer.

I like fiction and the kind of history that gives the grace and flavor of fiction to the past. No bloviation on current events, please. I can write that junk myself.

Whether it's fiction or nonfiction, writing takes me to another world.

I had been writing fiction since I was in eighth grade, because I loved it.

Growing up, I never gave a thought to being a writer. All I ever wanted to be was a traveler and explorer. Science-fiction allowed me to go places that were otherwise inaccessible, which is why I started reading it. I was going to be a lawyer, but I got saved.

I love writing. I think writing and directing go hand in hand.

I enjoy writing.

I think I write fiction for the opportunity to get beyond the limits of my own life.
