Quote

I have been aspiring to write some sort of literature for a long time.

I like reading novels because it provides insight into human behavior.

I've summarized dozens of books in my literary career; it's become rather second nature.

What I like in novels that I read and enjoy is interplay of theme: the mystery of how we seem to be so separate as human beings.

For me, literature is a complex game, both mental and concrete, which is acted out in a physical manner on the page.

I think any good literature, whether it's for children or for adults, will appeal to everybody. As far as children's literature goes, adults should be able to read it and enjoy it as much as a child would.

Literature is one of the most interesting and significant expressions of humanity.

I'm interested in writing that explores all sides of human beings.

I think that if you write what you love to read, that will be what your audience wants to read, too.

I don't know if nature is a direct literary influence on my writing, but it is certainly important to me. I take great joy in writing about it. It is something I have taken with me from my childhood; the body exposed to the threat of the physical world and at the same time being at home in it.
