Terry BrooksWe live out our lives as we are meant to live them-with some choice, with some chance, but mostly as a result of the persons we are.
Terry BrooksFiction writing is a twenty-four-hou r-a-day occupation. You never leave your work behind. It is always with you, and to some extent, you are always thinking about it. You don't take your work home; your work never leaves home. It lives inside you. It resides and grows and comes alive in your mind.
