On the Jim Butcher files - Dresden... thread there was a link to this interview. I particularly liked:

I’m not in the writing business to educate. I’m not a great deal smarter than any other given person, and my education has been sound but modest. I doubt I have anything truly profound to say to anyone which hasn’t occurred to them already. I’ll leave that kind of literature to other writers to pursue.
[...]
I want the readers to have fun.
-- Jim Butcher, 2012.
