Hopefully, I write what I don't know.

The awful thing, as a kid reading, was that you came to the end of the story, and that was it. I mean, it would be heartbreaking that there was no more of it.

Hopefully, I write what I don't know.

The pattern of the narrative never of necessity wants to end, it never has to.

I don’t think any man writing can worry about what the act of writing costs him, even though at times he is very aware of it.

O love, where are you leading me now?

Writing is the same as music. It’s in how you phrase it, how you hold back the note, bend it, shape it, then release it. And what you don’t play is as important as what you do say.
