QUOTE: On writing, from TRY-CATCH

"It doesn't seem as if I'm going to have a house full of children and grandchildren, and one day, I'll be gone. Each of the books that I've written are aspects of myself. There's nothing in them that didn't pass through my eyes, to be stored for minutes or for my whole life and then stirred together in a way that is a little bit like the part of life I saw or experienced, but a little bit new too, made up from my brain, the only me there will ever be."
