More From Robert Morgan
- "Young writers only take off when they find their subjects. Since almost everyone has a family and stories about family, that is often a place to start."
- "Teaching writing over the years intrudes on your own writing in important ways, taking away some of the excitement of poetry."
- "In the later books I am much more at home in the use of language to describe things. I had never thought of that until a critic pointed that out."
