Here words can kill - literally.

There is always something to see, if you only know how to look.

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.

There is no such thing as an appropriate joke. That's why it's a joke.
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.

Nowadays I find chocolate and/or chocolate-based snacks to be great motivators. Everyone loves chocolate. If someone has a lot of work to do, put a piece of fudge in a glass container (so they can see it) and let them know that if they accomplish their tasks, they can eat the fudge. You'll definitely get a reaction!
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
I'm always writing - its what I like to do. But when I'm not writing, I'm reading.
Michael Scott
Every story starts with an idea, but it is the characters that move this idea forward.
Michael Scott
So you should be able to see them clearly in your imagination. We always find it easier to visualize what we fear it's what keeps us afraid of the dark.
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.

Love is the water of life, drink deeply.
Michael Scott
Being immortal must have a lot of attractions. You can travel all over the world, see everything, do everything. But what happens if you are immortal and your friends and family are not? You are then destined to watch them age and die.

There have always been people like you, Nicholas Flamel. People who think they know what's best, who decide what people should see and read and listen to, who ultimately try to shape how the rest of the world think and acts. I've spent my entire life fighting the likes of you.
