I have never loved any writer as much as Hemingway.
I worship F. Scott Fitzgerald and I love his writing.
I love an author the more for having been himself a lover of books.
I have, for a very long time, been a huge admirer of Marilynne Robinson, whose work I just love.
I love Chekhov. I could go on all day about him.
I love Dickens. I love the way he sets a scene.
I love Martin Amis.
I've always wanted to do a Crichton book. I really love his writing.
A good edit process turns rocks into diamonds, and every author should love that part as much as the creative phase. I do love it. It's a different side to writing. It's like the fine-tuning.
I love Roald Dahl, Sharon Olds, Nizar Qabbani, who is a poet, and Junot Diaz.
