We all want to live forever, but we don't want to suck blood to do it, right? I think people like to have these deep moral questions that don't come up in real life.

Being an adult comes with a whole new set of issues.

I don't write that much horror. People tell me my books are scary, but they're not really; I don't go there.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.

Composers, like authors, have a lot in common. Our main goal is to connect with the listener emotionally.

When I do my makeup, it kind of helps me get into the character that I'm trying to portray.
