“Read to escape reality . . . Write to embrace it.”
“People read to escape reality. I write to give them realities to escape to.”
“I don’t believe one reads to escape reality. A person reads to confirm a reality he knows is there, but which he has not experienced.”
“I read to escape...I write to help others escape...--Howard Hopkins, Author of The Chloe Files”
“Writing is an escape from life reading is living a different life.”
“I write thrillers for the same reason that people read them – it's escapism.”
