You are astoundingly prolific, and your work is always both fresh and well written. Do you find it a challenge to maintain creativity and to keep up the quality of the work at the same time?
Charles de Lint
You know how you never get tired of finding a good book to read? That's what writing's like for me. I write books I'd like to read but haven't been written yet so I have to do it myself. I don't work from outlines so, juts like a reader, I'm pushing forward to find out what happens next. Mind you, that's a first draft. After that it's the same work as it is for everybody: editing, rewriting, polishing, which often takes longer than that first draft.

Charles de Lint:
My favorite characters of yours are the Crow Girls. Whenever they appear their magic stays with me for days, and well, they are why I started feeding all the little cousins in the neighborhood. Will there be anymore books where they appear as major characters? We need this kind of magic in the real world these days.
