I know I'm still young and there's a lot of time for things to happen, but sometimes I think there is something about me that's wrong, that I'm not the kind of person anyone can fall in love with, and that I'll always just be alone.

Ideas mostly come from the work itself. Often when I'm drawing, the words will be bouncing around in my head, and when I'm writing, ideas about the drawing happen.

In the bedroom time I have generated thoughts, and then in the studio I take those thoughts and try to shape them into something.

I felt ten years old and a thousand years old, but I didn't know how to be my own age. I had never felt that way before, but now I feel like that a lot.

The morning time is also a time when I look at what I did yesterday. That's often a jumping-off point for today.

I don't want to make myself sound that spontaneous, because I'm not.

I started thinking about [ what book is going to go next] when I was working on As Easy as Falling Off the Face of the Earth.
