Ideen kommen von überall - meinem Leben, allem was ich sehe, höre, lese und vor allem aus meiner Fantasie. Ich habe sehr viel Fantasie.
Ideas seem to come from everywhere - my life, everything I see, hear, and read, and most of all, from my imagination. I have a lot of imagination.
Ein guter Autor ist jemand, der Menschen beobachtet.
A good writer is always a people watcher.
I'm really quite bad at coming up with plot ideas. I like to create characters and just see what will happen to them when I let them loose!
When I started to write, it was the '70s, and throughout that decade, we didn't have any problems with book challenges or censorship.
I always have trouble with titles for my books. I usually have no title until the editor has to present the book and calls me frantically, 'Judy, we need a title.'
