I think writing should be about change.

The journey is long, the road is dark and frightening, but together we can reach our destination: the Tasmania of which we all dream, where all are welcome and all prosper, made no longer of lies but truth, built not of rich men's hate but our love for our island and for each other.

What reality was ever made by realists?

A good book ... leaves you wanting to reread the book. A great book compels you to reread your own soul.

I think sometimes writers must attempt to communicate the incommunicable, because, whether they wish it or not, they're the ones to whom it falls.

Writing is not lying, nor is it theft. It is a journey and search for transparency between one’s words and one’s soul.

I'm afraid a lot of people have lost a lot of money over the years betting on me.
