Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I'm not really a good reader. What I mean is, I think I'm not one of those people who can read a story and analyze it just like that.
My conception of my ideal reader has expanded quite a lot as I've matured: Ultimately when I think of my ideal reader, it's someone who's not sitting down with the intention of automatically arguing with the book: somebody who's going to give me enough slack to tell my story.
I'm not that big of a reader, to be honest.
People who don't read seem to me mysterious. I don't know how they think or learn about other people. Novels are a very important part of our education.
I read a lot. I am an inveterate reader. I always have a novel going.
I like to believe, as a writer, that anybody who isn't a reader yet has just not found the right book.
I'm a known reader. That's what I do with my time.
An ideal reader is someone who doesn't know what on Earth you've been doing, who will look at it with absolute freshness and go, 'Oh, so that's what you've been up to.'
I'm the kind of writer that people think other people are reading.
