Texting is not flirting, if you don't care about me enough to say the words than that's not love, I don't like it!

I can look into someone's eyes and feel like I know her better, versus a phone call, where you can't get that same type of emotion. That's why text messaging gets you in trouble: You can't bond, and emoticons explain only so much.

I have never turned to my girlfriend and said, 'Oh, okay, babe,' and I see it in scripts all the time.

Guarding your heart and protecting your dignity are a little bit more important than clarifying the emotions of someone who's only texting you back three words. I've learned that from trying to figure out people who don't deserve to be figured out.

I don't take part in texting and those other things myself, so I don't really know if people put as much thought into messaging as they used to into writing letters.

My work is always more emotional than I am. My characters say things to each other that I get accused of not being able to say to my girlfriend.

What women need to understand is that men don't communicate. It's not intentional or on purpose. We're just not as emotional. You ladies feel like you have to express yourselves.

The reason I write is that I'm not in dialogue with my emotions; writing puts me in touch with myself.

People who text a lot are not my favorite thing.

For me, writing is a love-hate relationship.
