I don't keep any copies of my books in the house - they go to my mum's flat. I don't like them around.
My biographers... would like to have my time at the court almost complete before they finish the book. We decided... to flip the order.
What I find cool about being a banned author is this: I'm writing books that evoke a reaction, books that, if dropped in a lake, go down not with a whimper but a splash.
I've always been a guy that's liked a crowd and having people around cheering for me. I'm not a guy that will keep his head down or respond negatively to boos or whatever.
Writing chases after the senses, and conveys them in an altered form. When it is done well, the senses come alive in a new and captured form.
When I was writing my first two books I was also freelancing and teaching and doing other odd jobs.
I can't listen to music while writing - any such distraction would have dreadful consequences.
I'm happy to work until I'm 70 if I'm able to. Actually, I'm happy to keep writing as long as people keep buying my books.
I have friends who are writers who have had movies made of their books, and they are almost uniformly horrified about what's been done - or, at least, dissatisfied.
