Krissy Kneen, N. A. Bourke (interviewer), single work interview

'I write because if I don't write I become incredibly sad. It is the one constant in my life. It is my place of escape. When I am not writing well I feel awful about myself. It is where I get my self esteem. Even though I have a great day job, I get no sense of achievement from it. The happiest moments of my life have come after finishing a major work like a book or a particularly good short story. I write to get that high back, I suppose. I also have this burning desire to write something truly beautiful and can't stop until I feel like I have achieved this.' (Source: Author)
