I Don't Trust White Critics'

It's Amazing How We Can Make Ourselves Believe What We Want To.

At Least Be A Nice Lesbian Or You're Going To Give The Rest A Bad Rap.

I Like To Think Of What Happens To Characters In Good Novels And Stories As Knots--things Keep Knotting Up. And By The End Of The Story--readers See An Unknotting Of Sorts. Not What You Expect, Not The Easy Answers You Get On Tv, Not Wash And Wear Philosophies, But A Reproduction Of Believable, Emotional Experiences.

What I Do Know Is Sometimes We Love The Wrong People And Sometimes We Marry Them.

I Let My Characters Do The Talking, Simple As That.
