I used to tell my writing students that they must write the books they wished they could come upon - because then the books they hungered and thirsted for would exist.
“Each novel is harder than its predecessor because I must work harder at not repeating myself. However, I enjoy the challenge. This is the greatest job in the world.”
“I want to write more books, see my first novel made into a film, fight more campaigns, work in more countries. I want to be able to recall experiences that have endured for their pleasure and range and intensity.”
