"First draft: let it run. Turn all the knobs up to 11. Second draft: hell. Cut it down and cut it into shape. Third draft: comb its nose and blow its hair. I usually find that most of the book will have handed itself to me on that first draft."
"Books must be treated with respect, we feel that in our bones, because words have power. Bring enough words together they can bend space and time."
