I believe that God locates himself at the spot where you recognize your own fallibility....And the paradox of it all has been that whenever I give up I seem to do better.

I published a bunch of my older books in e-book format with Open Road, which is great and has tons of hard to find older books available there.

My contention is that that style is just as stylized as an ornate style.

I am excited by... the new novel by Samantha Hunt. She's a writer I really admire a lot.

I am a better writer for having fewer demons, and I am more curious about the world and the people in it. So those of you thinking you might need your demons in order to be creative: I beg to differ.

I believe in the absolute and unlimited liberty of reading. I believe in wandering through the stacks and picking out the first thing that strikes me. I believe in choosing books based on the dust jacket.

Sadness is simply something to be treated with antidepressant meds and otherwise need not be spoken of.
