Being a parent is not for the faint of heart. I may joke about knowing fear, but the fact is, the first time I ever knew real fear was the day Charlotte, my first child, was born. Suddenly there is someone in the world you care about more than anything. – Harlan Coben
Frankly Im fairly boring or fairly busy. Between writing and family, I have little time for anything else. – Harlan Coben
I can write pretty much anywhere if you give me time and some quiet. The home is not usually the best place because I have four children. Its usually pandemonium around here! – Harlan Coben
If Im not writing well, Im not happy. If Im not spending enough time with my family, Im not happy. If Im not connecting to friends or if I dont work out enough… You get the point. Everything has to be balanced. Nothing should be an extreme. – Harlan Coben
