Sylvia Plath

– Suzanne Brockmann

– Susie Orbach

Susanna Moore

As a girl, I sat awestruck at the feet of Harriet Ne, author of ‘Tales of Molokai’. It was she who used to say, ‘I myself have seen it,’ after telling a particularly hair-raising ghost story – a phrase that I borrowed for one of my titles.

Sterling Hayden

– Sterling Hayden

Stephenie Meyer

It’s easier to come up with new stories than it is to finish the ones you already have. I think every author would feel that way.

– Stephenie Meyer

Stephen Sondheim

Making lyrics feel natural, sit on music in such a way that you don’t feel the effort of the author, so that they shine and bubble and rise and fall, is very, very hard to do. Whereas you can sit at the piano and just play and feel you’re making art.

– Stephen Sondheim

Stephen King

No, it’s not a very good story – its author was too busy listening to other voices to listen as closely as he should have to the one coming from inside.

– Stephen King
