fiction is the great lie that tells the truth
Change, when it comes, cracks everything open.
Life ain't the movies.
I did not begin with craft, I began with strong feelings and worked toward craft.
Two or three things I know, two or three things I know for sure, and one of them is that to go on living I have to tell stories, that stories are the one sure way I know to touch the heart and change the world
Things come apart so easily when they have been held together with lies.
