• Being a fiction writer is really like being an actor, because if you're going to write convincingly it has to sound right and play right.

There's no better job in the world, because when I sit down at that computer I'm the world's best forensics expert, if that's what I'm writing about that day. Or I'm some crazed psycho running down a dark alley. Or I'm a gorgeous woman looking to find a man that night. Whatever! But I'm all of those things, every day. How can you beat that?

• I was told I had to go to business school to succeed. I gave it a shot, but eventually dropped out to bootstrap a restaurant with just a Visa card and a $20,000 line of credit.

I ran the restaurant for two years, sold a franchise, decided to change paths, and sold the whole operation at a modest profit.
