“The good characters in my book are loosely based on folks I know. All the bad stuff is made up.”

“Sobriety is okay enough," Denny says, "but someday, I'd like to live a life based on doing good stuff instead of just not doing bad stuff. You know?”

“Someday, I'd like to live a life based on doing good stuff instead of just not doing bad stuff.”

“In this book I will teach you, based on stuff I have either made up, observed, or overheard, how to live the life you want--the life you Will. Obviously, if your name is Will and you are slow, this book will be confusing/upsetting. Be careful. Thanks.”

“People will tell you that the world is divided into good and bad, and that I’m bad, but it’s not, and I’m not. The real truth is that I make choices based on my circumstances. We all do. It trumps everything else, whether you know it or not. There has never been a good or bad.”

“I don't think any good book is based on factual experience. Bad books are about things the writer already knew before he wrote them. ”
