Horror, let’s face it, is basically pretty dumb. You’re writing about events that are preposterous, and the trick is to dress them up in language so compelling that the reader doesn’t care (Reader Quotes)
More than 3,500 hardcover novels are published each year. Even the most avid reader buys fewer than one a week (Reader Quotes)

I think there’s no excuse for the American poetry reader not knowing a good deal about what is going on in the rest of the world (Reader Quotes)
What I do believe is that there is always a relationship between writing and reading, a constant interplay between the writer on the one hand and the reader on the other (Reader Quotes)
The thing is, emotion - if it’s visibly felt by the writer - will go through all the processes it takes to publish a story and still hit the reader right in the gut. But you have to really mean it (Reader Quotes)
I want the reader to feel something is astonishing. Not the ‘what happens,’ but the way everything happens. These long short story fictions do that best, for me (Reader Quotes)
