You want your fans to like what you do, because it's coming from your heart and soul. You write it, you produce this thing. It's like your baby.

I think some fans want everything to stay they same because they want to stay the same.

I got to feel like what I'm giving the fans is 100 percent and that it's game-changing.

Any time you change something classic or iconic, you're going to have some part of the fan base up in arms.

Quickly you learn it's way better to have fans talking and caring about you than not.

I understand that some fans want to express their feelings with signs, and they should do so, as long as they stay within the boundaries of good taste and don't block the view of other fans.

I think the moment you start trying to please a fan base is when you start going downhill. I'm going to always, always write about what I want, even if it doesn't necessarily cater to most of them.

I still want to be as approachable and relatable as possible - when I meet fans and they're crying, I'll say, 'Calm down, there's nothing to cry about.'

I just want fans to walk away knowing that no matter what's going on, no matter how happy you are, no matter how sad you are, we did it. We're strong in this. We've come a long way, and life is not just one thing.

I've always felt from everyone I talk to that the fans feel like I'm tangible and they can talk to me and they know me.
