I've found that there's a pretty wide range of silly. I don't want to do outright parody, because I like keeping my own characters and stories at the core of the books. And to be honest, I'm not smart enough to do the kind of wickedly sharp satire you get from someone like Pratchett.

An editor named Kerrie Hughes wanted me to write a short story that brought my fire-spider Smudge from my goblin books into the present-day world. I came up with libriomancy as a way to make that happen.

A zombie amusement park sounds like fun, but the health code violations alone are enough to turn your stomach.

Ive tried to write deep and serious. I spent years working to write a story that would make my writing group cry.

Every libromancer had a first book. Etched more sharply into my memory than my first kiss, this book had been my magical awakening.

...bookstores, libraries... they're the closest thing I have to a church.

If I'm making myself laugh, I figure most of my readers will be amused as well.
