“The stories I create are never as awful as reality.”
“I get lost inside my stories. Reality doesn't exist inside the worlds I create.”
“Wear reality with grace, the alternative is awful.”
“People create stories create people; or rather stories create people create stories.”
“As I look at the human story I see two stories. They run parallel and never meet. One is of people who live, as they can or must, the events that arrive; the other is of people who live, as they intend, the events they create.”
“The best thing about being a writer is the joy of creating a story that’s never been told before.”
