The ways in which things are superficially similar but also distinct is interesting to me.

When I write a novel I start each morning by reading for 20 minutes.

At the exact moment any decision seems to be being made, it's usually long after the real decision was actually made--like light we see emitted from stars.

I get very involved in the internal logic of sentences.

To write you had to read so I backed into reading.

I went to college to study hospitality. I quickly got out of that and realized that what I liked to do was write.

If you lose all hope, you can always find it again.
