I always had stories inside my head and one day I just decided to start writing them down. I didn't actually decide.

I love movies, and theater, and kayaking, reading, biking, walking - oh, and dancing. I love to dance!

Snoring keeps the monsters away.

I meet people on the street or at book signings and they tend to treat me as if they know me, as if we're connected. It's great.

Censors never go after books unless kids already like them. I don’t even think they know to go after books until they know that children are interested in reading this book, therefore there must be something in it that’s wrong.

When I was twelve. And I was going through my parents' bookshelves, I found the most wonderful books and plenty of. Within those wonderful books that were real turn-on's. At 12 or 13, books were such turn-ons.

That's my anxiety dream. I go to the library and all the books on my subject are out.
