Time management is really key for me.

I love doing meta-humor, as long as it doesn't become too distracting and it's subtle.

The world's an angry place these days. Let's just not take it out on each other.

Do what you love and you'll always love what you do. I've found that that's true most of the time.

The guy who sits at the keyboard and types is so much smarter than I am. I think I got into writing so that I could spend as much time with that guy as possible.

Your subconscious is always working in the background, unlocking things and solving problems.

Time away from thinking about something is as valuable - perhaps even more so - than directly thinking about it.

When I first started writing, I had a very difficult time switching between projects, but now it's not only second-nature, it's indispensable: If I stall on one project, I can switch to another and stay productive.

I'm always working on something. I wish I had more time for free-thinking and brainstorming new ideas. That's not to say my mind doesn't wander, but I find myself wishing for more of that kind of time.

At some point if you're a professional writer, no matter what, it always comes down to you staring at the blank page by yourself.
