You Know Who My Gods Are, Who

One Of The Few Graces Of Getting Old - And God Knows There Are Few Graces - Is That If You've Worked Hard And Kept Your Nose To The Grindstone, Something Happens: The Body Gets Old But The Creative Mechanism Is Refreshed, Smoothed And Oiled And Honed. That Is The Grace. That Is What's Happening To Me.

I Want To See Me To The End Working, Living For Myself. Ripeness Is All.

Kids Books Grownup Books That's Just Marketing. Books Are Books.

I Do Not Remember Any Proper Children's Books In My Childhood. I Was Not Exposed To Them.

I Write Books That Seem More Suitable For Children, And That's Ok With Me. They Are A Better Audience And Tougher Critics. Kids Tell You What They Think, Not What They Think They Should Think.
