I’m an author. We don’t want to lead. We don’t need to follow. We stay home and make stuff up and write it down and send it out into the world, and get inside people’s heads. Perhaps we change the world and perhaps we don’t. We never know. We just make stuff up.

You can't trust other people. If it's important, you have to do it yourself.
Neil Gaiman
Image
Often you will discover that the harder you work, and the more wisely you work, the luckier you get. But there is luck, and it helps.

He sighed. It was a long sigh, weary and worldly-wise. The kind of sigh you could picture God heaving after six days of hard work and looking forward to some serious cosmic R&R, only to be handed a report by an angel concerning a problem with someone eating an apple.

Trees there were, old as trees can be, huge and grasping with hearts black as sin. Strange trees that some said walked in the night.

Image
I like reading. I prefer not reading on my computer, because that makes whatever I am reading feel like work. I do not mind reading on my iPad.

All your questions can be answered, if that is what you want. But once you learn your answers, you can never unlearn them.

There are some dogs which, when you meet them, remind you that, despite thousands of years of manmade evolution, every dog is still only two meals away from being a wolf.

Anywhere that I can't check my email is a good place to write!

If you only write when inspired, you may be a fairly decent poet, but you'll never be a novelist.
Neil Gaiman
Image
The names are the first things to go, after the breath has gone, and the beating of the heart. We keep our memories longer than our names.

If a Devil is one who dares, when others hold back, then I am happy to play the Devil in this Mystery, boy.
