When I was young, you know, the first foreign editions that would come in of anything of mine, I'd sit there and look at them as these strange and wonderful artifacts.

As far as I'm concerned, the entire reason for becoming a writer is not having to get up in the morning.

When I was very young, I would occasionally stick 'f****' where I knew something contentious might happen so that the editor could remove the word 'f***' very proudly and leave whatever else was around it.

For me, I would rather read a good book, from a contented author. I don't really care what it takes to produce that.
