Still, something about writing made me spend large hours of my free time at my desk.
When I'm writing a novel, I'm usually just trying to write about things that are interesting to me.
I don't write for an audience, I don't think whether my book will sell, I don't sell it before I finish writing it.
I loved writing the Spellman novels, but I never had any plan to only write in one genre.
The whole purpose of writing a book is to be understood - if other people write about you, they try to guess why you did things, or they hear things from other people.
I just finished writing an essay about William Maxwell, an American writer whose work I admire very much.
I will say again that I have never, and would never, harm a child. It sickens me that people have written untrue things about me.
A writer should care about one thing - the language. To write well - that is his duty. That is his only duty.
I've never thought of myself as a writer. I still don't, despite all the writing I've done.
