Words have power. Yet that power must be rooted in truth and justice. Words must never stand apart from those principles.

'You end this collection…vowing to never let life, or writing, get so complicated again' Guardian

In this engaging book, the internationally best-selling author shares with readers what he thinks about being a novelist; his own origins as a writer; and his musings on the sparks of creativity that inspire other writers, artists, and musicians.
