My stories run up and bite me on the leg-I respond by writing down everything that goes on during the bite. When I finish, the idea lets go and runs off.

All of the good, weird stories I’ve written are based on things I’ve dredged out of my subconscious. That’s the real stuff. Everything else is fake.

If you write a hundred short stories and they're all bad, that doesn't mean you've failed. You fail only if you stop writing.
writing breathing stories
Every story I've written was written because I had to write it. Writing stories is like breathing for me; it is my life.
writing mind stories
You either have an imaginative mind or you don't. All of my writing is God-given. I don't write my stories - they write themselves.
rivers stories stopping
A story should be like a river, flowing and never stopping, your readers passengers on a boat, whirling downstream through constantly refreshing and changing scemery.
