Don't write your books for people who won't like them. Give yourself wholly to the kind of book you want to write, and don't try to please readers who like something different.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
If you don't like my book, write your own. If you don't think you can write a novel, that ought to tell you something. If you think you can, do. No excuses. If you still don't like my novels, find a book you do like.
I don't get far enough into a boring book to hate it.
I don't want everyone to read anything; I like us all reading different books.
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.
Writing a book is a very lonely business. You are totally cut off from the rest of the world, submerged in your obsessions and memories.
If you like my novels, I commend your good taste.
It doesn't matter what kind of book you write - you ought to write it well and with some kind of style and elegance.
I love deliberately badly written books.
There's more fiction in my life than in books, so I don't bother with them.
Be kind and considerate with your criticism... It's just as hard to write a bad book as it is to write a good book.
