• Staying focused on a project or plan is one of the most difficult challenges we face. There is always the house to clean, calls to make, laundry to fold, deadlines to meet.

• I try to write things that can't be made into movies. My novels have thwarted many attempts to film them and I think that was true of the essay, too.
