Writing is about taking everyday observations, things which people see almost every day of their lives, and yet bringing it to their attention for the very first time.

Finding a writer who can write decent kids’ dialog and finding kids that can act realistically and not ‘cute’ is an effort.

If I’d learned nothing else, it was this: If you want to be a great writer, be a man. If you can’t be a man, write like one.

Makebelieve is a writer’s best friend.
