Quote

But I care about the reader, and I'm trying to keep the reader's attention for as long as I can.

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

I made a decision to write for my readers, not to try to find more readers for my writing.

I'm a known reader. That's what I do with my time.

What I care about is readers because without readers I can't make a living... And I think it's a bad thing for the world if people don't read anymore. I want people to read a lot.

I've always loved to read. But sometimes I go for a year without reading, because I forget to.

For people who are readers, reading is important to them.

I'm a painfully slow reader. And to this day, I mean, I love reading, and I'm very careful - very selective about what I read because I don't read very fast and, therefore, not a great deal.

I don't read my books, I write them. Once I've finished the many years it usually takes me to write them, I can't bear to read them, because I've spent too long with them already. I'm not advertising them very well, am I?

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.
