Nothing's a better cure for writer's block than to eat ice cream right out of the carton.

The recipe for great art has always been misery and a good bowel movement.

Always mystify, torture, mislead, and surprise the audience as much as possible.

I've found the best way to revise your own work is to pretend that somebody else wrote it and then to rip the living shit out of it.

When you're writing what you love, it's the most fun you can have with your clothing still on, unless of course, you write naked.

Writing a first-draft battle scene is akin to real combat—chaos, confusion, and you must keep your cool as you fire word bullets downrange.

Nothing says work efficiency like panic mode.

Don't think about the writing process too much. Just do one thing: tell the motherfucking story.

When writing, I uncage KAT: Keep Adding Tension. Even if I don't know where the story's going, petting the KAT keeps it purring.
