There's too many people in the world.

Babies have big heads and big eyes, and tiny little bodies with tiny little arms and legs. So did the aliens at Roswell! I rest my case.

I'm so not ready to die. It petrifies me. I go alone. I go to a place I don't know. It might be painful. It might be the end. My thought is that it is the end. I become nameless, and I spent a lifetime being known.

I think of doing a series as very hard work. But then I've talked to coal miners, and that's really hard work.

I love to evoke the bones and meat and thoughts of characters.

Don't be afraid of making an ass of yourself. I do it all the time and look what I got.

The basic quality that any great story must have is a story that illustrates the human condition.
