"If there's a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it."
"Just becaue a novel is easy to read does not mean it was easy to write."
"All I can do is write a better book and one that I'm proud of. I can't meet everyone's expectations, but I can strive to meet my own."
"The biggest for me [by self-publishing] is the freedom to write what I want when I want. I can jump genres and write several novels a year. Traditional publishing is much too restrictive. I don't want to pump out the same book over and over. I want to challenge myself and produce the work that I feel is missing from the marketplace."
"The reader is free to stop reading, to close the book, to not buy the book. That reader's frustrations are entirely valid, and that reader should read something else. I just put it out there, and it is what it is."
