Sometimes adults seem as though they have cut a chord from being a child.

No matter how close to personal experience a story might be, inevitably you are going to get to a part that isn't yours and, actually, whether it happened or not becomes irrelevant. It is all about choosing the right words.

If you are a writer you're at home, which means you're out of touch. You have to make excuses to get out there and look at how the world is changing.

I do enjoy Gothic fiction or books about zombies if they are well written and I like vampires.

I see people in terms of dialogue and I believe that people are their talk.

I'm going to sound like an old man but at my age, it's lovely doing something that you've never done before.

Schools don't really allow failure and yet it's part of any endeavour, not just writing.
