Poverty Is A Great Equalizer

There Is No Devious And Dangerous Life. I've Lived A Charmed Life, Especially In The Last Thirty Years Since I've Started Publishing. I've Won The Lottery. And I Keep Winning It Every Year And I Am So Fortunate To Do Something I Thoroughly Enjoy And Still Enjoy After A Bunch Of Books.

I Didn't Dare Think Of The Future; The Past Was Still Happening.

I Don't Start A Novel Until I Have Lived With The Story For Awhile To The Point Of Actually Writing An Outline And After A Number Of Books I've Learned That The More Time I Spend On The Outline The Easier The Book Is To Write. And If I Cheat On The Outline I Get In Trouble With The Book.

Critics Should Find Meaningful Work.

In My Case, Once You Sell A Lot Of Books And You Are Labeled A Bestselling Author, The Serious Critics Are Never Gonna Say Anything Nice About You.
