Besser / Better Erwachsene / Adult Gleich / Same Kinder / Children Muss / Must Nur / Only Schreiben / Write Sie / You Weg / Way
While I'm writing YA, I can't read YA, and the same with adult. I usually only listen to music while I'm writing YA.
To tell the truth, I don't read children's books. I'm an adult. I just write them.
You must stay drunk on writing so reality cannot destroy you.
It seems to me that not only the writing in most children's books condescends to kids, but so does the art. I don't want to do that.
It's hard to say if actual places really affect the way you write.
I stay way from that area, and there's only so many songs you can write about love, sex and death.
Just write about what bites you and damn the rest.
You can't write about a friend, you can only write about a former friend.
Children use all their wiles to get their way with adults. Adults do the same with children.
