I think it's great when stories are dark and strange and weirdly personal.

There is something in human beings that loves stories.

I like exploring both the light parts and the dark parts of a single person. And all of those shades tend to come out most acutely in stories about families.

My favorite movies are love stories.

I always do like to write love stories, even if they end tragically.

The larger-than-life thing is definitely what I'm after. I've always drawn dark stories. Occasionally, I'll try a perfect hero, but it's a real stretch for me. I like 'em warts and all, and obsessive and weird.

Love stories are probably all I've ever been able to write or want to write.

I have always been a dark writer.

I love stories - devising them, writing them, reading them, watching them, being a part of them.

Of all the love stories ever published, I have - realistically - read very few.
