I like to be surprised. The best writing is when it defies me, when it starts going a different way than I had planned.

My stories are often a little mysterious.

I came up with a story and I wrote it.

The stories I write are often literal to events that have happened or observations that I've made, and sometimes they're fantastical.

I'm finding writing very fascinating.

I love bouncing my words off of someone else's, and the fact that writing a story with someone else guarantees you'll get something you never, ever would have written on your own.

That element of surprise is what I look for when I am writing. It is my way of judging what I am doing - which is never an easy thing to do.

I find that most people know what a story is until they sit down to write one.

I don't know what the secret is when I am writing it - it really is a surprise to me.

A lot of the stories I've read about myself, I don't even recognize who they're writing about.
