If you choose to do something, do it with your utmost. And remember, expect nothing and life will be velvet.

I'm not the most detailed writer. I have a tendency to be more action-oriented vs. descriptive.

I think one of the appeals of suspense is to safely explore our innermost fears.

Women cry. Men laugh. Whiners moan. Men laugh. Wimps complain. Men laugh.

Mothers hold close, fathers let go. Maybe that’s the way of the world.

What I learned is that it's arrogant to be certain of anything. The world is a complex place and only idiots or assholes think they know it all.

My mother would like me to start all interviews by stating that she and my father are perfectly normal. They are proud of me, and as perplexed as anyone by my novels.
