Quote

A novel, at least for me, cannot be visualized at one time.

The most challenging and exciting aspect is the outline and formation of the plot points. This is the stage where the notion of the story begins to take shape, and I can see glimpses of what is to come.

It's hard to write a good plot, it's very hard.

I love intricate plotting and exciting twists, but I realize more that people enjoy a good story in a simple, focused way.

I always struggle with making the technical aspects of the plot fit with the story that's unfolding in my imagination.

I write and draw from the gut. I often don't know what my stories are about until they're done.

You find most of the interesting stories are the ones that are slightly harder to get made.

I wanted to portray very, very dark subject matter and a deceptively complex story in the brightest colours and simplest lines possible to leave the readers reeling.

I don't plot with huge detail, just big moments and important elements, and then I have a structure but can fly by the seat of my pants when I write.
