"Post-modernism is dead because it didn't address human needs."
Needs
"The real question is: How do you react? What do you do next? Evade responsibilities? Bury yourself in work? What do you do? All three of my novels take up that question, although none gives an answer."
Work
"I was born in Washington State and have lived here for 42 plus years."
Identity
"I write because something inner and unconscious forces me to. That is the first compulsion. The second is one of ethical and moral duty. I feel responsible to tell stories that inspire readers to consider more deeply who they are."
Duty
"Even though I may not intend it when I set out to write the book, these places just emerge as major players in what I'm doing, almost as if they are insisting on it."
Writing
"I was totally absorbed in the real world, the politics, the history, the news, and I just couldn't find my way into the fictional world... When I finally could return to writing the novel, it was in fits and starts."
History
"There's a certain nostalgia and romance in a place you left."
Romantic
"I think you have an obligation to share what you know as a writer."
Writing
"It's a brooding melancholy that haunts me."
