Anticipating the end of the world is humanity's oldest passtime

History admits no rules; only outcomes.

Sometimes, comics will make the observation that it's not jokes that are funny, it's characters that are funny. And isn't that true! That's why I always kill jokes. I'm terrible at them, because I get the joke right, but I can't get the character right, and it just goes down like a lead balloon.

Write something every single day, even if it's just three lines. And it doesn't matter if it's any good - just write something every day.

As an experienced editor, I disapprove of flashbacks, foreshadowings, and tricksy devices; they belong in the 1980s with M.A.s in postmodernism and chaos theory.

It's a small world. It keeps recrossing itself.

Lunatics are writers whose works write them.
