Concentrate On How Good If Feels To

I Still Get Angry When Older People Assume That Everyone In My Generation, Screws Around. They're Probably The Same Ones Who Think All Kids Use Dope. It's True That We Are More Open Than Our Parents But That Just Means We Accept Sex And Talk About It. It Doesn't Mean We Are All Jumping Into Bed Together.

I'm An E-mail Junkie Though I'm Trying To Read My In-box Only Twice A Day And To Answer All At Once.

I Love Picture Books. I Think Some Of The Best People In Children's Books Are The Ones Who Create Their Own Picture Books. I Wish I Could Say I'm One Of Them, But I'm Not.

I Use A Computer, But Before I Begin Each New Book I Keep A Notebook. I Write Down Everything That Comes To Mind During That Period Before I Actually Begin. It Might Take Months Or Weeks. That Notebook Is My Security Blanket So That I Never Have To Face A Blank Screen (or Blank Page). But I Print Out Often And My Best Ideas Usually Come With A Pencil In My Hand.

Ideas Come From Everywhere - They Come From What You See And Hear And Imagine.
