I like to read fiction, and I particularly enjoy reading young adult fiction. But I also read children's books, adult books, current authors, and classics, but I like fiction the most.

I think of fiction as the highest calling. I'm kind of addicted to it. It's the thing that has gotten me through all the hard points in my life.

I love the kind of movies I watched when I was a kid. But, I also love telling great stories.

I love fiction because in fiction you go into the thoughts of people, the little people, the people who were defeated, the poor, the women, the children that are never in history books.

One reason we love fiction is because stories have a comforting shape. They provide a resolution that's lacking in our regular lives.

I love movies. And I dig a great love story: the kind that wrecks me, then builds me back up and leaves me inspired. I write what I want to see.

My favorite movies are love stories.

I don't read a great deal of fiction, to my shame, other than the classics.

I tend to read more nonfiction, really, because when I'm writing I don't like to read other fiction.
