I'm A Christian, And Those

I Seriously Doubt I Would Ever Have Written The First Story Had I Not Been A Lawyer. I Never Dreamed Of Being A Writer. I Wrote Only After Witnessing A Trial.

I Don't Usually Eat Breakfast. I Prefer To Be Asleep During The Hours That It Is Served.

Quite Often I Can Be In A Bookshop, Standing Beneath A Great Big Picture Of Myself And Paying For A Book With A Credit Card Clearly Marked John Grisham, Yet No One Recognises Me. I Often Say I'm A Famous Author In A Country Where No One Reads.

I Was A Lawyer For 10 Years - A Short Time, But It Molded Me Into Who I Am. My Clients Were Little People Fighting Big Corporations, So It Was A Natural Thing To Not Only Represent The Little Guy But Also To Pull For Him - It's The American Way.

I Don't Start A Novel Until I Have Lived With The Story For Awhile To The Point Of Actually Writing An Outline And After A Number Of Books I've Learned That The More Time I Spend On The Outline The Easier The Book Is To Write. And If I Cheat On The Outline I Get In Trouble With The Book.
