The trick is not caring what EVERYBODY thinks of you and just caring about what the RIGHT people think of you.

One of the things I'm most proud of over the years, is time management and balancing family and work. Everyday, you just look at what needs to be done and do that, what needs to be done. That includes the idea that family is first, kids are first and when you're with the family, put the phone down, look them right in the eye.

The trick is not caring what EVERYBODY thinks of you and just caring about what the RIGHT people think of you.

I've been reading Ed Brubaker comics since the first appearance of Ed Brubaker comics and every single time he announces a new title I mutter to myself: ugh! I wish I would've thought of that!

One similarity I see between peers and some of the people who read my books is that comics were definitely an outlet for us.

I love meeting fans. The people who are fans of my books are really smart and dedicated, because some independent comics are hard to get. I will drive all the way to Pittsburgh or Detroit to put it in their hands.

You're as good as the people you're with.
