I never know if a book is crazy or not. There's that fear - this is the one that will end it all.

More and more, I tried to make comics in the way I like to read comics, and I found that when I read comics that are really densely packed with text, it may be rewarding when I finally do sit down and read it, but it never is going to be the first I'm going to read, and I never am fully excited to just sit down and read that comic.

I never feel there's anything I can't do.

It's a challenge to express real life in dramatic terms. In an entirely "made-up" story, you are sometimes overwhelmed by the infinite possibilities.

I'm always hiding the books in my closet, and my art's always turned upside down in my drawer.

Film is a director's medium, and a film set is a complicated military structure - I have to keep reminding myself to stay in my place, or all will burst into chaos.

For me, the whole process involves envisioning this Ghost World comic book in my head as I'm working.
