Ridley Pearson
I think every fiction writer, to a certain extent, is a schizophrenic and able to have two or three or five voices in his or her body. We seek, through our profession, to get those voices onto paper.
Ridley Pearson
Being right wasn't nearly as important as doing right.
Ridley Pearson
Be careful what you wear to bed, because you never know where you might wake up.
Ridley Pearson
As a young boy, I read 'Cheaper by the Dozen' and immediately became neurotic about my use of time. It taxed me severely, but only for the next 50 years. But I think it also allowed me to discipline myself to sit in the chair and be a writer, where one of the most needed qualities is patience.
Ridley Pearson
