I think if you are writing something that you are trying to design for someone else to like that is not necessarily you're demographic, it is a much harder road.

I love the supernatural in storytelling. The Twilight Zone was a huge influence on me, in terms of writing and storytelling, where you're not restricted to the parameters of reality to tell your tale.

I do love animals so much, and have a great respect for them emotionally and intellectually, because they are so different from human beings.

If you're just grinding up hamburger at McDonald's, I see that as a bit of an affront to living things. You're not really honoring the life.

Relationships are now off-kilter.

We often do to people what people are very comfortable with doing to animals without a second thought.

I had always loved horror films, so I wanted to do something in the horror genre but wanted it to be sweet and charming at the same time. Because there's a difference between watching horror, where you can leave it behind, and writing horror, where you have to live in it for months and months at a time.
