Our brain comes hard-wired with an urge to play, one that hurls us into sociability.

children school writing
I'd written my first novel for adults, which was called Basic Eight and was set in a high school, and we were having a devil of a time selling it.

She said, "Well, we can't publish this, but I think you should write something for children," which I thought was a really terrible idea.
children book reading
I'm always loath to make generalizations about what is for children and what isn't. Certainly children's literature as a genre has some restrictions, so certain things will never pop up in a Snicket book.
