I have two pairs of reading glasses. One pair is for reading fiction, the other for non-fiction. I've read the Bible twice wearing each pair, and it's the same.
I read very widely, both non-fiction and fiction, so I don't think there's a single writer who influences me.
For someone who writes fiction, in order to activate the imagination and the unconscious, it's essential to be free.
It's part of a cycle of stories I'm writing where I deconstruct classic science fiction.
I started writing short fiction very briefly, as I imagine is the case for some novelists.
I thought Nixon was the worst President we had ever had, save only perhaps Andrew Johnson.
I'm very strict in my belief that non-fiction should be truthful, and fiction is for invented narratives.
I will literally read anything, regardless of genre, fiction or non-fiction, as long as it's well written.
I have dictated stories from an airport after writing the story out in longhand on the plane that I got from phone interviews and then was applauded by editors for 'working magic.'
