Nothing is more real than nothing.
I'm not the most talkative guy in the world.
I was nicknamed 'Skeeter' in Little League because I was small and fast, like a mosquito flying across the outfield.
Any time I got in emotional turmoil, I felt sick all the time, like at any minute I would die.
I didn't even go to my prom. I didn't have one date in high school.
There's been a boiling down of real emotion into a set pattern instead of individualism.
As a kid I used to pretend I was John Denver, of all people, and play the guitar and sing Take Me Home, Country Roads.

I love the writers in Austin. We stick together. We all like each other and go to each other's book signings in case no one else shows up.
I’m an atheist. The good news about atheists is that we have no mandate to convert anyone. So you’ll never find me on your doorstep on a Saturday morning with a big smile saying ‘Just stopped by to tell you there is no word. I brought along this little blank book I was hoping you could take a look at. ’
I always write my novels with music (I don't listened to the music seriously. ) Music seems to encourage me.
