More quotes by Michael Scott
The research. It is always the best part of writing. And, of course, it is the great excuse to travel.
Michael Scott
I was brought up in a home where I saw my parents read and I was taken to bookshops and libraries, so I grew up feeling very comfortable around books. Also, Ireland is a country which has honoured its writers and poets, so when someone says they wanted to be a writer, its not mocked or looked down upon.
Michael Scott
The most reward experience is having another writer come up to you and say that they started writing because they read my books. That is how writing as a profession continues: readers becomes writers who inspire new readers.
Michael Scott
A good story is always a journey. It is about taking the journey, the people the hero meets along the way and how they change him or her. All stories are journeys. They don't have to be shocking or outrageous: they simply have to be interesting.
Michael Scott
Most writers, I'm afraid, live very boring lives sitting in front of a screen. However, having said that: every writer puts a bit of themselves into the characters to bring them alive.
Michael Scott
Negotiations are about controlling things, about being in the driver's seat and make one tiny mistake you're dead. I made one tiny mistake, I wore women's clothes
Michael Scott
I'm probably better known in the US as a YA writer, I have a huge body of adult horror and fantasy behind me.
Michael Scott
For me, the favourite chapters have always been the last chapters in the books. I knew exactly how each book would end - and how the first chapter of the following book would begin. I knew I wanted to leave the readers with answers - and a bunch of new questions!
Michael Scott
First up, the lost and found has gone missing. It itself, is lost. So please try not to lose anything until we find it.
Michael Scott
I never base characters on real people - you can get into so much trouble that way!
Michael Scott
There really is no difference in the actual writing or plotting. I choose to tell different stories for the younger reader and, of course, I would never put sex and extreme violence in a YA book. But writing for adults and children requires the same care and attention.
Michael Scott
The best moment is when you walk into a bookstore and see a pile of your books - that is the oddest experience in the world!
Michael Scott
But the truth is a double-edged sword it is a dangerous thing.
Michael Scott
the best lie is wrapped around a core of truth
Michael Scott
Perenelle shuddered. You know I hate leprechauns more than almost anything.
Michael Scott
Good collaboration essentially boils down to personalities who work well together and are able to integrate each other's notes and ideas without killing each other.
Michael Scott
You must learn to heed your senses. Humans use but a tiny percentage of theirs. They barely look, they rarely listen, they never smell, and they think that they can only experience feelings through their skin. But they talk, oh, do they talk.
Michael Scott
He is many things - dangerous and devious, cunning and deadly, a good friend and an implacable enemy - but he comes from an age when a man's word was indeed precious.
Michael Scott
The fifth force was the magic of Time, the greatest of all the magics.

I'll have an awesome blossom, EXTRA awesome.
