A little tantrum in real life seems so much bigger online.

Some things can be both real and imaginary at the same time, . . . some lies can be true, . . . broken faith may be restored.

Remember, it's the winners write the history books, and the losers get the leavings.

Library-denigrators, pay heed:suggesting that the Internet is a viable substitute for libraries is like saying porn could replace your wife.

I don't tend to do category fiction very well. One of my problems when I was starting off was that publishers were hesitant to handle my books because they were never sure what I was going to do next.

If you can still write in spite of the fact that you're not getting paid, that nobody cares about what you're writing, that nobody wants to publish it, that everybody is telling you to do something else, and you still want to and you still enjoy it and you can't stop doing it...then you're a writer.
