My kids' books all have a darkness to them.

I still don't love the darkness, though I've learned to smile in it a little bit, now and then.

I've always been attracted to darkness.

Lots of children have had dark experiences, and if they're not having direct dark experiences, they are thinking about things and learning that life is fragile. You have to acknowledge that side of life to be able to then offer comfort and hope and goodwill.

'Darkness' is a subjective word; it depends what your viewpoint is and how you live life.

Storms and darkness scared me, but somehow it encouraged me to learn about nature and I think nothing's dark, dark is beautiful too.

When I was little, I didn't like being left on my own in the dark.

I was afraid of the dark until I was, like, 15 and slept with a nightlight.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I'm still scared of the dark. I have to have a light on all night. It's completely irrational, and my son is the same. I just hate the dark.

I'm a creative person who had a lot of dark time in my life. I can still get to it: I can still go to a relationship or a time when things weren't great. But it's getting further and further from me.
