Since I was a kid, I've had this morbid fascination with dark and scary subject matter.

All of my writing career is about how human beings negotiate dark matter.

Dark matter is interesting. Basically, the universe is heavier than it should be. There's whole swathes of stuff we can't account for.

I don't personally see my work as being dark. What interests me is a balance between light and dark.

I've always been interested in the paranormal, but 'Gray Matter' is a more subtle, mature expression of that - looking at the powers of the brain and more delicate evidence of the extraordinary.

What interests me is the sense of the darkness that we carry within us, the darkness that's akin to one of the principal subjects of the sublime - terror.

Don't assume that what we currently think is out there is the full story. Go after the dark matter, in whatever field you choose to explore.

I don't try and be dark, but there are obviously darker emotions that I want to capture sometimes.

If you're puzzled by what dark energy is, you're in good company.

I'm drawn to dark characters, and to things that are really weighty.
