Zitat des Tages von Barbara Park:
I was a good kid, but I was just very chatty. Teachers were rarely entertained, but occasionally a child was, which was enough for me. Everything was so urgent. I needed to say it immediately.
My own pregnancies were all about me, me, me. My aches, my pains, my swollen feet, and my body that looked like the Michelin Man.
Society just has a way of inhibiting you, which is good and bad.
For 20 years I've gotten to laugh my way through my work. For me, that's a dream job.
I've stopped reading about my books on the Internet because it's too hurtful.
All of my characters are less than perfect.
I find that when I'm struggling to think of how a six-year-old would feel about something, I just have to go right down to the common denominator, find the simplest way that you can look at an object or a problem, and not muck it up with all of the stuff that adults do and over-analyze.
