Irvine Welsh When I look back over my novels what I find is that when I think I'm finished with a theme, I'm generally not. And usually themes will recur from novel to novel in odd, new guises. Richard Russo When I was growing up, I always read horror books, while my sister read romance novels. Dorothy Allison When I wrote The Onion Field, I realized that my first two novels were just practice. Joseph Wambaugh When you're my age and you see a story, you better go for it pretty quickly. I'd just like to get a few more novels under my belt. John Le Carre Will Shatner, Jonathan Frakes of Star Trek have already put novels out. Bruce Boxleitner Within my own life, I read all the beloved novels by lamps of vegetable oil; I saw the Standard Oil invading my own village, I saw gas lamps in the Chinese shops in Shanghai; and I saw their elimination by electric lights. Hu Shih Writers of novels and romance in general bring a double loss to their readers; robbing them of their time and money; representing men, manners, and things, that never have been, or are likely to be. Mary Wortley Montagu Writing novels is the most exciting. Sidney Sheldon Writing novels preserves you in a state of innocence - a lot passes you by - simply because your attention is otherwise diverted. Anita Brookner You don't want to dwell on your enemies, you know. I basically feel so superior to my critics for the simple reason that they haven't done what I do. Most book reviewers haven't written 11 novels. Many of them haven't written one. John Irving You have to be kind of clued into them, they are a world of their own, and most people find them disappointing because the best short stories are not constructed like novels.
