Well, I had nightmares when I was doing the Klan story all the time. I had a recurring nightmare of basically being exposed as a Jew inside the Klan compound.

Obviously, I like to write stories that are page-turners. But I always try my very, very hardest to be as factually true as possible.

No, people back home don't realize why there is this kind of need for heroes in America at the moment. People in Britain don't really understand what's going on here. They don't understand why Camp X-ray exists.

It's not a good idea to define the boundaries of normality by tearing apart people who are outside of it.

Ever since I learnt about confirmation bias I've started seeing it everywhere.

Discover the time of day when you write best, and write then. For me it's about 7 am to noon. For other people it's overnight. Try not to do anything other than write between those times.
