When you’ve found the right one - when you see him, when you’re with him - you’ll feel like you’re coming home.

Saying hello to something new means saying good-bye to something old and loved.

There were so many of these moments that could never be captured accurately, even in the camcorder, only in the heart.

I can never understand why people who have not seen me for a while ask if I am still writing. They might as well ask me if I am still breathing.

Anyone of any age, any race, any background, any education - if they write an interesting enough book - can become a published author. What it takes is imagination, the ability to put words on a paper in an interesting, perhaps even unique way, the fortitude to rewrite, rewrite, rewrite, and polish, edit, polish, edit until the story sort of sings. I think everyone has a story inside him, but only a few have the persistence and, of course, the interest, to write it down and see it through.

Writing, for me, is the best occupation I can think of, and there is nothing in the world I would rather do.

We all have our own battles to fight, and sometimes we have to go it alone. I'm stronger than you think, you'd be surprised.
