Listen closely. There’s a remote possibility that you might learn something: First, I don’t give a damn if my work is commercial or not…I’m the writer. If what I write is good, then people will read it. That’s why literature exists. An author puts his heart and guts on the page. For your information, a good novel can change the world. Keep that in mind before you attempt to sit down at a typewriter. Never waste time on something you don’t believe in yourself.

When I'm writing, really writing, everything but breathing is an ignorable distraction.

On Writing About Nora Hawks

I write about a female character to try, in vain, to understand two things: the purpose of life, and women.
