How do your kids like your books and movies? In my sense it kind of does fall into Einstein the more I study the universe, the more I shake my head and say, “I don’t know how all these random elements come together without some guiding influence.” That’s my own perspective, you might call it “Intelligent Design.” For me, that resonates with the most sense. I was raised Catholic, so of course, I believe in something greater out there. The characters in The Choice talk about “the God question” early in their relationship. Meanwhile you have this show about somebody who’s got time to just sit in the backyard, put on some music with his dog and throw the ball, and you’re like, “I want that life!” So many people are so incredibly busy these days, and if you work and you have children and you have a partner, a husband, parents, siblings, pets, neighbors, you are running from the moment you wake til the moment you go to sleep. I know they’re out there, but I’ve actually never met one, whereas I know so many people who are dealing with a mother with cancer, or a brother who is ill, or a sister who had a mastectomy.ĭo you think that’s a reason readers are drawn to your stories?īecause I think it harkens back to feelings of nostalgia or longing for a slower pace. And so to me it just reflects the truth-in fact, to me it reflects the truth so much more than anything with a serial killer. At the same time, it’s often moments like those that make you question things. So I think for most people, this is part and parcel of life. I can’t tell you how many doctors we saw trying to figure out this diagnosis-it was very challenging. My second son Ryan was diagnosed as severely autistic. When Cathy and I were married, she had a miscarriage.
Sparks: In the end I think it reflects reality, right? Even in the course of my own life, I was 23 years old and my mom was in a horseback riding accident, and those last few hours were spent in the hospital.
