Quote

I don't reread my books after they're published, because it's agony.

I've given up reading books. I find it takes my mind off myself.

I have given up reading books; I find it takes my mind off myself.

All of my books come from pain.

I've stopped reading about the death of books because it's wasteful and morbid and insulting to the authors, agents, publishers, booksellers, critics, and readers that keep the world community of fiction interesting.

I read just endlessly, ceaselessly, almost every book, it seems!

I've got a big, long list of stuff you're entitled to hate about my books.

I never want to deal with a book once I'm finished writing.

I would never want to hurt anyone by writing a book.

I read for interest and enjoyment, and when I cease to enjoy it I stop.
