My most important rule is one that sums up the 10: If it sounds like writing, I rewrite it.

I don't believe in writer's block or waiting for inspiration. If you're a writer, you sit down and write.

Not dreams but night changes, not destiny but path changes, always keep your hopes alive, luck may or may not change, but time definitely chages.

I never see my bad guys as simply bad. They want pretty much the same thing that you and I want: they want to be happy.

I always felt, you don’t have a good time doin crime, you may as well find a job.

I don't get in a position to be frightened. I don't do anything dangerous, and I always pay my bills.

I'm not going to write for posterity. I'm going to write to make a buck.
