I was an odd child, and I never outgrew it. This comes across as pretty obvious in the books I write today. I do comedy because that's the way my mind works, but my stories aren't exactly fluff. You'll find dark threads woven among the light, and universal themes underlying it all. I mix genres, push boundaries, and entangle my characters in outrageous scenarios and twisted plots--but somehow they always manage to fight their way free to happiness by the end. And they often surprise me by how they do it. I laugh and cry and learn with them on their journeys, and I love them all--even the villains (sometimes especially the villains). But I can't make it easy for them, or they'd miss their chance to surpass their own limits and become heroes. I weave tales not just to entertain, but also to inspire. I believe in laughter and love, heroism and happy endings, so that's what I write.
