Wherever God Has Planted You,

I'm Not Really A Mass Market Writer.

I'm Basically An Upper West Side Jewish Writer.

I Expect That My Readers Have Been To Europe, I Expect Them To Have Some Feeling For A Foreign Language, I Expect Them To Have Read Books - There Are A Lot Of People Like That! That's My Audience.

Once You Have Your Characters, They Tell You What To Write, You Don't Tell Them.

It Takes Me Three Months Of Research And Nine Months Of Work To Produce A Book. When I Start Writing, I Do Two Pages A Day; If I'm Gonna Do 320, That's 160 Days.
