It's really difficult to know what is the best way forward when you're not getting a lot of support - and probably most writers aren't getting enough support.

There are so many people who write really interesting work and try super hard and still don't get published.

I don't make fun of my characters. I just like to laugh and I think people are funny and the world is funny.

The "we" voice is rare, and the communal impulse of the "we" is interesting to me.

It is radical for a woman to choose to survive and to choose to eat anything.

I think someone who writes a ghost story probably needs to believe it in some way.

I love ghost stories, I love to read them, and I love the idea of being haunted.
