I cannot say how strongly I object to people using other people's writing as research. Research is non-fiction, especially for horror, fantasy, science fiction. Do not take your research from other people's fiction. Just don't.

I want a kiss to be so believable it give the reader shivers.

I like having the books, and I like having the fans, I love sharing. But I've been invited to more menages a trois than anything. People read the books and assume I do what I write about.

I'm not terribly fond of soapboxes.

I'm not a good follower, but I'm a good team player, as long as I'm not having to take orders that are stupid.

If people would write exactly what I wanted to read I wouldn't feel so compelled to write myself.

My characters surprise me constantly. My characters are like my friends-I can give them advice, but they don't have to take it. If your characters are real, then they surprise you, just like real people.

Though I am a little overwhelmed by technology, I see its uses, and its advantages. I have never written a book that wasn't on computer.

Be true to your characters and they'll be true to you.

I was raised with just my grandmother.

I don't know exactly what draws people to certain characters. I think characters are just like people. Who knows why you have chemistry with one person, but not another? It's a mystery. I am surprised, and humbled, that people are so enthused by characters that I created out of thin air.

My daughter is 8, and she loves mummies. Her favorite book for ages was Cinderella Skeleton, where all the characters are ghouls and such.

Never argue with your characters; they know themselves better than you do.

As far back as I can remember, I have been making up stories. I didn't write stories until I was 12 1/2.

Each book is a unique challenge. Book nine took me to New Mexico, which I had never even visited until I went to research it for location. I'd never set a book in a place I knew nothing about, so that was difficult.

I wasn't like most girls.

My writing style is very sensual, as in sensory detail.

I have never had an editor ask me to explain anything more than was already down on the paper. I've done work for five major publishers, and countless editors, and it's never come up.

Maybe I'm just orally fixated.

I'm older than everyone keeps thinking I am.
