My writing process isn't a very organized thing. The actual writing part is a tiny part of my life. I often write in public. I bring my laptop or write freehand in notebooks. Then, I'll read through them while I exercise or walk the dog. The very last thing I do is the sitting alone at the computer part.

It's my petty fear of personal rejection that allows so many true evils to exist. My cowardice enables atrocities.

I will never write a sequel to anything that I will ever write.

I don't remember the hotel rooms or the airports but I always remember the events.

What you have to consider is the possibility that God doesn't like you. Could be, God hates us. This is not the worst thing that could happen.

You see, life only turns out good or bad for only a little bit. And then it turns out some other way.

You hear the best stories from ordinary people. That sense of immediacy is more real to me than a lot of writerly, literary-type crafted stories. I want that immediacy when I read a novel.
