I think that if you write what you love to read, that will be what your audience wants to read, too.

My relationship with my readers is somewhat theatrical. One of the main things I try to do in my work is delight my readers.

I'm writing what comes into my head, or through me, or from somewhere else, and it is the most extraordinary, exciting thing. I love it, and I'm very greedy, and I really enjoy it!

I was enjoying myself writing, because I don't know what's going to happen when I take a ride around that corner. You don't know at all what you're going to find there. That can be thrilling when you read a book, especially when you're a kid and you're reading stories.

Writers are in the entertainment business, and it gives me lots of pleasure to entertain my readers.

I want my readers to feel, to think, sometimes to laugh. But most of all I want them to enjoy a good read.

I always like to entertain, first of all, and if the readers take anything away from it that helps them with their own lives, well then, that is a bonus.

I keep writing because it is deeply pleasurable to me.

Whatever the readers feel when they're reading my books, I feel it tenfold when I'm writing it.

It's nice to know that what you're doing is being read and enjoyed by a good deal of people.
