I'm a little bit of a control freak.

I've never chased the dollar, I've always chased the reader's heart. I love having more readers. The more people who read it, the more thrilled I am.

That’s the problem with falling in love. It makes you start talking like a bad country song

There are few times that I feel more at peace, more in tune, more Zen, if you will, than when I force myself to unplug.

Frankly I'm fairly boring or fairly busy. Between writing and family, I have little time for anything else.

Its funny how you can let yourself forget for seconds, how even in the heat of the horrible, you can have moments when you fool yourself into thinking it might all be okay

Tragedy is a hell of a teacher. It's much too strict, but it's a hell of a teacher.
