Don't Shame The Young For

Love Is Selfless, It Is A Weakness, A Giving In, A Constant Falling.

As A Writer, My Main Objective Is To Tell The Story Urgently - As If Whispering It Into One Ear - And To Know The Characters Intimately.

If Men Are Paid/praised More Than Women For The Same Work Than It Always Pays To Allow The Man To Have More Freedom To Pour Himself Into His Work - Think Of Athletes, Actors Over The Age Of 28, Lawyers, Accountants, College Deans.

I Don't Know When I'm Writing Dark. I Don't Know When I'm Writing Funny Or Even Heartbreaking. I'm Always Just Trying To Write It True.

Try To Think Of Writing As A Gift - More Complexly Put: It Is The Curse And The Cure.
