I fooled around and fell in love.
Autumn. Pretty leaves, pumpkin pie and sweaters. Perfect weather for reading. Winter is great but I hate shoveling.
I usually tame my off-kilter sense of humor for novels.
My family is filled with wonderful storytellers. I lack their gift of gab, so it's a relief to be able to write.
In general, I'm careful when I'm dealing with subjects of deep cultural importance and write with abandon when I'm dealing with issues of personal dysfunction.
I don't think anyone's normal.
I don't see the point of pretending we're clones.
A half-truth is usually less than half of that.
I got into lobbying kind of against my will at first. I frankly didn't want to be a lobbyist, but I realized that in lobbying I could do things politically that were interesting to me and do some what I thought would be good. I'm not sure it all turned out like that, but at least that was some of the initial thinking.
You must learn to drink the cup of life as it comes. . . without stirring it up from the bottom. That's where the bitter dregs are!
If time be a ring of gold, opportunity is the rich diamond that gives it both its value and glory.
