“Those who write may think they know their target market. They may even...” — Catherine Ryan Hyde Quote

“Those who write may think they know their target market. They may even feel they can shape the work to fit it. If this is true of you, you have more control over your creative process than I do. Even so, I humbly submit that you try letting your writing shape your target market instead and see what happens.”

“I really only have been seriously writing, finishing things and publishing things since January '91.”

“As authors, we all have to learn not to be reactive to public statements about our books. It's really not our business what each reader thinks of them.”

“I do find walking is fundamental to my creative process.”

“There's something really nice about not sitting separate from the crew in some massive trailer away from the studio. To actually be there with them, it's more of a creative process.”

“I create work, and I devote myself to the creative process, and I try to, you know, stay pure in that process and be worthy of the messages that I receive.”
