Whenever I'm reading a book I enjoy, I always develop a mental list of the people I want to share it with.
I don't write that much horror. People tell me my books are scary, but they're not really; I don't go there.
When it comes to the personal essays I write, I just convince myself that no one will ever read them.
I'm not even speaking to people any more; I just want to be reading my Kindle the whole time!
If people would write exactly what I wanted to read I wouldn't feel so compelled to write myself.
Most of the people who write to me are really clever, really engaged. They just want to say that they have read my book and liked it.
Never believe people in this business who say they don't read what's written about them.
When I started to write, I realised that you need a bit of both: the overall context as well as the individual's experience.
The further you go, what, I'm gonna wait til I'm 80? Naw, I'm tellin' my story now. I was just moved. I was moved to tell my story. You know? People write books all the time.
