Zitat des Tages von Kelley Armstrong:
It wasn't until I was in my teens that I started admiring writers as inspirations for my own work, and my earliest influences there were Stephen King, Marion Zimmer Bradley and Richard Adams.
Even in horror novels where you know most characters aren't going to make it to the end, it's crucial to have fully fleshed-out characters. If you don't do that, the reader doesn't care what happens to them.
It took many years to accept that fantasy is the fuel for my storytelling passion, and without that, I really am a hack, writing for money or approval rather than for the pure delight of storytelling.
Storytelling is my passion, and it rises from a love of reading.
I don't read much of what I write because I worry about unintentionally borrowing something.
There is no story that can't be improved by adding zombies.
