What is the aim or goal of your writing:
"I am a realist. There is something in the term 'neorealism' which implies an intense realism, and as both writer and reader this is where my interest lies. Stated otherwise, while some writers write about what might or could happen, I write about what has happened. But I am not a reporter."
