Then start small, write short stories, write ideas that you're not overwhelmingly emotionally invested in.

On the other hand, if the best you've got is pop fiction (say a Twilight) and you're not trying to win any literary awards then go for it. I've met lots of young writers who never get off the ground because they want to build a house without having to learn how to mix the concrete that builds their foundation.(less)

For Patriot of Last Resort see my Author's Blog:
My Life In Talk Radio: Why I Wrote, "The Patriot of Last Resort"

I draw my inspiration from many sources. Typically little bits of information just stick in my thoughts and eventually the combination of disparate ideas come together to form an idea I build on. It's a little like shaking up a bag of Scrabble tiles, dumping them on the ground and having a single word come out. From that I start the work of building a story round it.(less)

“It is likely I will die next to a pile of things I was meaning to read.”
Lemony Snicket

Philip Pullman
“Her last conscious thought was disgust at life; her senses had lied to her. The world was not made of energy and delight but of foulness, betrayal, and lassitude. Living was hateful, and death was no better, and from end to end of the universe this was the first and last and only truth.”
Philip Pullman, The Subtle Knife
