I'm one of the lucky writers: plots come easily to me

My favorite book is always the one I'm working on at the moment

People nearly always believe, and are willing to back it up with weapons and cruelty, that their religion and way of life is better than the other person's

I get letters from readers who say that they have always hated reading, but somebody suggested one of my books, they actually finished the book and enjoyed it, and they're going on to read another book. I'm thrilled that they have figured out that reading is fun

I approach serious subjects, and I like to have the good guys win and have the parents among the good guys

I believe my readers are crazy about their parents and want to be just like them when they grow up

I decided to write short stories because they got rejected quicker.
