You mean inside? Or outside?

When I'm writing a book, you can't think about your audience. You're going to be in big trouble if you think about it. You're got to write from deep inside.

The best books come from someplace inside. You don't write because you want to, but because you have to.

I didn't know anything about writers. It never occurred to me they were regular people and that I could grow up to become one, even though I loved to make up stories inside my head.

A good writer is always a people watcher.

I was a fearful kid and, for some crazy reason, a pretty fearless writer.
