Paul Harding Quotes

Don't Write Your Books For People Who Won't Like Them. Give Yourself Wholly To The Kind Of Book You Want To Write And Don't Try To Please Readers Who Like Something Different. Otherwise, You'll End Up With The Worst Of Both Worlds. I Write Lyrical, Introspective, Experiential Books Concerned With Consciousness And Perception. If A Reader Wants To Know What My Protagonist's Insurance Policies Are, He'll Be Better Off Curling Up With A Nice Cup Of Chamomile Tea And An Actuarial Table. Similarly, Don't Write Your Books For Bad Readers. Your Books Will Suffer From Bad Readers No Matter What, So Write Them For Brilliant, Big-brained And Big-hearted People Who Will Love You For Feeding Their Minds With Feasts Of Beauty.
