"I'd like to encourage people to please keep reading-and most importantly, to please keep trying new writers. The only way we can bring fresh new material into the field is if people go out and buy it."
People
"I've only been living in England for the last 10 years, if you don't count my student years."
Experience
"There's that old adage about how there's only seven plots in the world and Shakespeare's done them all before."

Music
"There are plenty of bad editors who try to impose their own vision on a book."
Vision
"When I was younger, I was in love with everything about the British Isles, from British folklore to Celtic music. That was always where my passions were as a young girl, and so I studied folklore as a college student in England and Ireland."
Love
"I have a great respect for the academics who are working with the source material. My hat's off to them."
Respect

Passion
"The first job I was offered was as an editorial assistant. I think it was the best thing for me, in terms of being a storyteller by nature, to have spent years being an editor because I learned so much from it."
Nature
"What I find interesting about folklore is the dialogue it gives us with storytellers from centuries past."
