Quote

I was reading a lot of books I admired, and thought that I would like to write something like that someday.

I want to be a writer someday.

After a while, you start to realize that you should write a book you would want to read. I try to write a book I would enjoy.

I always say that, for me, writing a book is like a wacky Greyhound bus trip - I know where I'm starting and where I'll end up, but I have no idea what will happen along the way.

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.

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've got more ideas for books than I'll ever be able to use in my lifetime. I'm very fortunate like that.

I can't even say I've begun yet, but I'm trying on the idea that there is a book in my future.

I knew that if I was going to write a book, I was going to have to read one, too.
