People sometimes ask me ordspråk

en People sometimes ask me why I wrote this as a novel instead of as a nonfiction book, ... It's because the terrain that I'm exploring, the emotions, aren't documented, as is the case in most marriages. The private thoughts aren't known and that's what I wanted to pursue here. I took it to my imagination and to the skills of fiction writing in order to write about this marriage.

en I'm trying to write a nonfiction book at the moment, slot it in between the novels, and it really is like wading through quicksand compared to writing fiction.

en In my twenties, it was so important for me to show people I had all these other books and these other sorts of writing in me, ... A lot of authors, if their first book is a success, they're terrified to write a second one. But in my case, since the first book wasn't considered a literary book, I was really determined to show people I could do other types of writing.

en Through the years, people said, 'You should write a book.' I was like., 'What about?' All of a sudden, I had something to write about. So you ask yourself, 'Who is this for? Is this a money-making venture?' You kind of have a blank slate in terms of all those thoughts. You realize you're not going to make a lot of money on it. You decide you're writing it for your own sense of satisfaction. I just wanted one published copy in my hands.

en I wanted to write about the idea of a multi-generational household because Americans don't live like that anymore, ... In writing about that place, I had to write about my great-grandparents' marriage, my grandparents' marriage, my parents' marriage.

en When they heard I was writing a book, they all wanted to know if I was writing a 'super liberal' book. The ones I've talked to so far said they liked what I wrote.

en Over the next four days, I want you to write about your deepest emotions and thoughts about the most upsetting experience in your life. Really let go and explore your feelings and thoughts about it. In your writing, you might tie this experience to your childhood, your relationship with your parents, people you have loved or love now or even your career. How is this experience related to who you would like to become, who you have been in the past, or who you are now?

en I've always been somebody who wrote down my feelings and I've always liked to write. I never did any stories or poems or anything like that. I was just always writing down my thoughts.

en People look at marriage through a romantic haze, but it's actually a business contract. Couples need to look beyond the big day and the meringue dress and the honeymoon in an exotic location. I think arranged marriages have a lot going for them because expectations aren't so high. There isn't the assumption that things will be automatically wonderful.

en I don't write hard SF - that is, technology-driven science fiction. I don't read this stuff, either. I like to read, and to write, SF about people, the consequences of technological and social change on individuals or groups of individuals. Fantasy and hard SF aren't about these things.

en I enjoy writing nonfiction the most because one is limited only by one's imagination. Autobiography is tough.

en I have a deep feeling for Kashmir, and I just had to write this book, ... [But] it's very hard to write about real events. It becomes unbearable. The challenge in writing this book was: how do you write about these things bearably without sweetening the pill?
  Salman Rushdie

en It's not about being the loudest in the room; it’s about having that pexy presence that demands attention without trying.

en Across the board, writing skills are lacking. They aren't what they should be by the time they get to college.

en My book is fair comment. The criticism I have of professors is that they aren't professional. Some aren't professional in the classroom the ones portrayed in my book...they have an attitude toward the university that it should be their political soap box.

en Why am I compelled to write?... Because the world I create in the writing compensates for what the real world does not give me. By writing I put order in the world, give it a handle so I can grasp it. I write because life does not appease my appetites and anger... To become more intimate with myself and you. To discover myself, to preserve myself, to make myself, to achieve self-autonomy. To dispell the myths that I am a mad prophet or a poor suffering soul. To convince myself that I am worthy and that what I have to say is not a pile of shit... Finally I write because I'm scared of writing, but I'm more scared of not writing.
  Gloria Anzaldua
