#real

I always just wanted to be funny. I never really planned to be scary. ↗

I feel that good fantasy will always be in demand. I think children especially need literature that helps them escape from the real world, which is very scary to them right now. ↗

I love theme parks but I'm a real chicken on rides. I'd rather invent scary rides for my books than go on them for real. ↗

I really wanted to be a cartoonist, and I was in 4th or 5th grade and I would bring my drawings in, and I'd look around, and everyone could draw better than me. Everyone. My drawings were just awful. So that's why I had to write. ↗

I set a goal for myself everyday when I write - 10 pages a day - and it's much harder because I'm too dumb to turn off my Twitter and everything so it's always on and it's a real distraction. It's a major distraction. ↗

I've never turned into a bee - I've never been chased by a mummy or met a ghost. But many of the ideas in my books are suggested by real life. ↗

When I write for kids, I have to make sure they know what can't happen. They have to know it's a fantasy. But when I write for adults, they have to think it's real. Every detail has to be real or they won't buy it. ↗

I can't really change my life to accommodate people who are jealous. I don't see why I should. ↗

The deeper you get into Yoga you realize it is a spiritual practice. It's a journey I'm making. I'm heading that way. ↗

I really wanted to work with David Lynch. I was a big fan of The Elephant Man and Eraserhead. ↗
