As with anything in life, when you have certain experiences at pivotal times, they shape you.

Life is so fast and it can change in an instant.

I'm very fortunate with all the jobs that I've done that I've wanted to do them. So, I feel very grateful for that. With each and every one, I could pick memorable moments.

I'm really grateful for all the projects I've been involved in and the parts I've played.

I dont know about happily ever after... but I know about happily, Weetzie Bat thought.

Let thine occupations be few, saith the sage, if thou wouldst lead a tranquil life.

I might die if I forget how to breathe.

The part of my writing I find the most rewarding is when people write to me or speak to me in public to tell me how his or her life has been changed by my books.
