Talking about how I might write the next book is like talking about whether or not to have sex. Any dithering ruins it.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It's true that I have spoken about doing a book before, but then everyone you speak to is planning to write a book.
I certainly want to continue to write in a way that's intimate. I love books where you feel you're having a romance with the writer.
I never discuss a novel while I'm writing it, for fear that talking about it will diminish my desire to write it.
I'm not a writer who refuses to talk about a book until I've finished.
It may be important to write a book that doesn't come up to what I would like to have rather than to write no book at all.
Even if you plan your book, the actual writing is unplanned.
Two things I do well in books are sex and violence, but I don't want gratuitous sex or violence. The sex and violence are only as graphic as need be. And never included unless it furthers the plot or character development.
Books are like movies of the mind and it's better to leave Kinsey where she is.
I always want to write something better than the last book.
I think you get so wrapped up in the book you're currently writing, it's hard to think about anything else. But I know as soon as I'm done with this book, I'll move on to something else.
