I don't start a story until I know where it's going to end.

The longer I've been writing scripts, the more I find that you have to give the artist more leeway or else you'll just be disappointed. You can't force them to draw every image that's in your head. Since I'm a horrific artist, I wouldn't want them to anyway. So I definitely give them a lot more leeway now than I did at the beginning.

I, for example, am a pompous asshole, but my comics are genius!

After ten years of toiling away in Hollywood, I realized that there's no better place for new ideas than comics.

I grew up in the suburbs of Cleveland in 1988 and there was just one year where suddenly all of the delivery kids that used to be boys were suddenly girls. It happened at our church too. Altar boys were suddenly altar girls. There was just this sense that all these young women knew there were openings here to be the first of their kind.

I love that the book [Paper Girls ] gets to kind of evolve and change in each era. Our third storyline is our best so far.

There's a lot of fiction from that period that we're nostalgic for.
