Quote

Series work is just grueling.

Developing a series is a next step for me.

I did not know at first that it would be a series; I discovered after the first novel that I had more to say about it, so I did another. And another, and then the readers demanded yet more.

Solutions must be based on compromises.

I miss doing a series, but I don't want to do a series for a series' sake.

Compromise, contrary to popular opinion, does not mean selling out one's principles. Compromise means working out differences to forge a solution which fits the diversity of the body politic.

You have to compromise all the way. The only thing that counts is the result.

Before venturing on so large an undertaking as is involved in the task I had set myself I consulted a number of distinguished scholars as to the desirability of such a series.

Politics is compromise.

Sometimes compromise is painful.
