evil conquer cheat
Neither love nor evil conquers all, but evil cheats more.
nice evil might
Still it might be nice, once in a while, not to have to choose between evils. Just once, couldn't I choose the lesser good?
evil trying balance
Everyone spends their lives trying to balance their world between good and evil.
sleep night evil
Nothing helps you sleep at night so much as being absolutely certain that you're right, and everyone else is evil.
evil different
Different isn't evil, it's just different.
evil candy pleasant
Why was so much evil pleasant, pretty on the outside, like poisoned candy?
evil giving ordinary
Give a truly good person power, and they’re still a good person. Give a bad person power, and they’re still a bad person. The question is always about the person in between. The one that isn’t evil, or good, but just ordinary. You don’t always know what an ordinary person is like on the inside.
issues evil forever
Some issues stay fresh every time you open them up. It's like evil magical Tupperware -- it stays fresh forever.
You give the reader a sense of a full meal.
growing
It was just you had to be strong, and if you weren't strong you're a victim and you're not going to make it. That was the reality when I was growing up.
philosophy moving fighting
You can't save everybody. In fact, there are days when I think you can't save anyone. Each person has to save himself first, then you can move in and help. I have found this philosophy does not work during a gun battle, or a knife fight either. Outside of that it works just fine.
asked kicked marion program
I went to Marion College for writing and I was kicked out of the writing school. I was asked to leave the writing program because I was corrupting the other students.
bills money shows version
Nothing wrong with making money or doing what you need to do to sell, but I think it shows when you're writing something to pay the bills and when you're writing something because it's really your version of the world.
bets characters saying surprised
I guess, what I'm saying is that when I've been this surprised by my own characters and world, all bets are off.
