I want you, as a reader, to experience what I experience, to let that other world, that imaginary world that I have created, tell you things about the real world.

The Golden Compass is one of the best fantasy / adventure stories that I have read. This is a book no one should miss.

I think I make better use of language and imagery than when I started out.

For a writer, its very attractive to stay in one world for a time.

You shouldn't believe everything you hear you're young, not stupid.

Fantasy is the only canvas large enough for me to paint on.

We should not be less than what we are.
