I'm a fast writer.

And there are a lot of books I read out here where I could care less what happens to the characters.

Basically, my stories are a journey.

Basically what motivates me is ill will.

However, in some cases, I think it makes it easier for some people to express themselves more openly because they feel more comfortable knowing that if the doctor is of the same race, there are certain things they don't have to explain.

I'm doing this because I want to make an emotional investment, and the story, what I experience along with each character, is what makes it worthwhile.

I don't expect everybody to love my books.

I try to tell an honest story, a plausible one, but each book does not get easier than the last.

You never know where it's going to go or how it's going to end up, which is why it's impossible for me to even consider the idea that it could ever get easier.

A lot of the writers coming out don't care about these values. They're like the equivalent of Lil' Kim. They'll go as far as they have to go just for shock value and to make money.

Everybody's not going to like my books. I can live with that.

And I don't consider my work to be formulaic at all.

I don't really think of evolution as an artist as much as I would like to think of myself as just an adult.

It's always exciting when you have something propelling you.

There are lot of writers out here writing what I think are solid, strong stories that make you feel better when you finish them.

I'm interested in the daily dynamics of a family. Those dynamics change based on whether you are a teen-ager, or in your 20's, 30's or 40's.

I've known so many late-aged women whose husbands wound up running off with the secretary or some hoochie.

For each book I have asked to write my own disclaimer and they never would allow it.

My characters are being put in a situation where they are being tested. Each book is a test.

I write about people and situations that are causing us harm. Somebody needs to say it or show it - and if it's embarrassing then it should be.
