There's Nothing Trite About Being

I Try To Put My Heart Out There To Everybody. They Don't Have To Be Christian. For Example, I Have Lots Of Jewish Readers. I Love My Jewish Readers.

There Are So Many People Who Don't Know Small Towns Exist. When I Write, I Want To Give My Readers Two Things: One Is A Sense Of Consolation, And Two, I Want To Make Them Laugh.

Bottom Line, Wasn’t Life Itself A Special Occasion?

For A Very Long Time, I Wrote A Book A Year, And Was Eager And Willing To Do It, To Put Bread On The Table, To Have My Work Out There. Now I Must Write A Book Every Two Years, And That's Never Enough Time, Either.

Sometimes You Have To Gag On Fancy Before You Can Appreciate Plain.
