I am the cause of all my upsets. I am my worst enemy.
From Chuck Palahniuk
There's a moment in every book when the book turns and it surprises me.
Maybe it's our sins that give God consolation when he finally has to give us cancer.
I like to get people moving and jumping. I think it's good to add more emotion and chaos.
What I'm always trying to do with every book is to recreate the effect of the stories we heard as children in front of campfires and fireplaces - the ghost stories that engaged us.
I think America is just so in love with conflict.
I think in a way, you're doomed, once you can envision something. You're sort of doomed to make it happen. I've found that the moment I can envision leaving a relationship, that's usually the moment that the relationship starts to fall apart.
The most boring scenes are the scenes where a character is alone.
My goal is more to be remembered. They'll remember this thing and like it in the future. The trick is to stay remembered long enough for that to happen.
I will never write a sequel to anything that I will ever write.
