Quotes

R.L. (on ghosts): I've never seen a ghost--but I keep LOOKING! (edit)
R.L. (on where he gets his story ideas) Ideas come from everywhere. But most of my ideas start with a title. I try to dream up a really good book title first. Once I have a title, it leads me to a story. By the way, I've never gotten a story idea from a dream. I have the most boring dreams! (edit)
