Everything I write is about big feelings. What I care about is trying to be brave enough to feel how you feel and to be emotionally true.

You need books to read and readers for books.

Sam and Dean Winchester sitting on the top of the Impala sharing their feelings over a beer is a reward worth driving any 'Supernatural' demon away - but in real life, they'd have crippling co-dependency issues.

I was an obsessive fantasy reader from the time I could read at all.

It's like how science fiction in the '50s was a way of talking about war without actually having to risk any political capital. The obvious metaphor is power and powerlessness, but I also think it's a way of experimenting with dangerous feelings in a safe arena and trying things out.

I worked in videogames for 16 years before writing my first book in 2009.

We kept my middle schooler home from school for three days before we turned in our final draft because she was so mean and so brutal at editing out all the cheesy bits. She would roll her eyes and make fun of us, and it was what we needed.

To this day, the smell of oranges reminds me of 'Mockingbird.'
