I am tired of reading reviews that call A Good Man brutal and sarcastic. The stories are hard but they are hard because there is nothing harder or less sentimental than Christian realism.... when I see these stories described as horror stories I am always amused because the reviewer always has hold of the wrong horror.

The meaning of the story is the story.

I never understand how writers can succumb to vanity - what you work the hardest on is usually the worst.

It seems that the fiction writer has a revolting attachment to the poor, for even when he writes about the rich, he is more concerned with what they lack than with what they have.

Either practice restraint or be prepared for crowding

Unadaptability is often a virtue.

I'm a member and preacher to that church where the blind don't see and the lame don't walk and what's dead stays that way.
