“I think readers appreciate those of us who stay in the trenches and fight the good fight even when times get tough. I know that I, personally, lost respect for writers who, when there was a downturn in the market, started shouting from the rooftops that they wrote thrillers and suspense novels rather than horror. As far as I'm concerned, those wussboys should sever all ties with the horror community if that's the way they feel and get out of the way so real horror writers can do their work.” IfsThinkingKnowsWayFeelsShouldRealFightingLostCan DoCommunityNovelReaderHorrorToughConcernedAppreciateSuspenseTiesShoutingThrillersTrenchesGood FightRooftopsDownturnSuspense NovelsFight The Good FightLost Respect Author:Bentley Little
“I write what I want to write. Period. I don't write novels-for-hire using media tie-in characters, I don't write suspense novels or thrillers. I write horror. And if no one wants to buy my books, I'll just keep writing them until they do sell--and get a job at Taco Bell in the meantime.” IfsWantWritingBookCharacterJobsNovelMediaPeriodsHorrorSellsSuspenseTiesBellsThrillersUsing MeTacosTaco BellSuspense Novels Author:Bentley Little
