Forced to define 'irrational subconscious,' I would say that it is a small padded room inside all of us, where the only furnishing is a small card table, and the only thing on the card table is a revolver loaded with flexible bullets.

I have grown into a Bestsellasaurus Rex - a big, stumbling book-beast that is loved when it shits money and hated when it tramples houses... I started out as a storyteller; along the way I became an economic force.

Writing isn't about making money, getting famous, getting dates, getting laid, or making friends. In the end, it's about enriching the lives of those who will read your work, and enriching your own life, as well. It's about getting up, getting well, and getting over. Getting happy, okay? Getting happy.

I’m so afraid that all I can reach will lead me to all I dare not see.

There are really very few economies of scale in centralising or standardising advertising.

That's the curse of the reading class. We can be seduced by a good story even at the most inopportune moments.

Memories are contrary things; if you quit chasing them and turn your back, they often return on their own.
