These days - with the decline of the traditional churches - I'm concerned about where we obtain some form of moral direction.

If I had the luxury of working as a full time writer, I think you would see novels appearing on a much more regular, and frequent, basis.

It's always better if you're next door. Ideas come up at the oddest times. They don't always come up in a conference call.

I have a backlog of novels which I would love to be working on and would be working on if I were not obliged to hold down a full time job.

My work is known by too few people for me to be remembered as a writer - that is, beyond those dedicated souls (bless them) who have followed the oeuvre through its various stages. To be realistic, when they and the last of my friends have died, I doubt I shall be remembered at all.

Until you see the cross as that which is done _by_ you, you will never appreciate that it is done _for_ you.
