I was unnerved to learn in my twenties that the poems of Emily Dickinson that I had memorized as a girl were not the poems as she had written them.
The way to get things done is not to mind who gets the credit for doing them.
Last week I was just someone who had had a first novel published.
I read the final Wallander novel, 'The Troubled Man,' not long after it was published.
I've written only two novels, but they're both long ones, and they each took a decade to write.
I used my NEA fellowship to write my novel, 'In Country,' which was published by Harper & Row in 1985.
I wrote a novel, so now they can call me a novelist. I tell stories; that's it.

My first book was an adult novel, 'Down Among the Gods,' published by Virago, and I've written poems as well, a slim volume of poetry.
