The fact is I'm very self-similar.

There is no ritual that enhances creativity other than just starting.

I actually own a copy of my own book; that's how dedicated I am as an author.

All books should be trilogies; I mean I think we all agree on that.

Do not listen to the killjoys who tell you never to eat oysters in months that do not contain the letter R: May, June, July, August, Octoba. You know.

More people have more access to more readers for less money than ever before in history. It means a lot of dross; but it means a lot of very talented people can find and nurture a readership in ways that were not possible twenty years ago. From a creative perspective, that is all that writing is about.

For a long time, I would write without music, because I thought it was distracting until I appreciated that it actually unlocks a certain unconscious productivity vault in my mind.
