"Novel-writing is a bit like deception. You lie as little as you possibly can. That's the way I do it, anyway."

Previous Quote

We must be very suspicious of the deceptions of the element of time. It takes a good deal of time to eat or to sleep, or to earn ahundred dollars, and a very little time to entertain a hope and an insight which becomes the light of our life.

— Ralph Waldo Emerson
