My fans are like no other. Completely original people.

I've been a huge Psychedelic Furs fan for a long time. I love Butler's paintings, too. I like all their songs. I'll even crank 'Pretty in Pink,' I don't care.

My writing is authentic, and whatever happens in my life is what I write about.

Some writers confuse authenticity, which they ought always to aim at, with originality, which they should never bother about.

The most distinguishing element of my novels is that I try as hard as I can - within the context of a popular commercial thriller - to make them feel authentic. Drawing on real locations and real events is part of that authenticity.

The authenticity thing has never been an issue for me.

People's passion and desire for authenticity is strong.

I've always tried to stay true to my authentic self.

I think, at the end of the day, it comes down to authenticity and creating what you love.

I'm constantly trying to be as original as I can.
