book keys passionate
I change my keyboard between every book. I usually shop around. I'm very passionate about the physical feel of pressing the keys. It's got to have the right springiness.

Those big things are hard to do under the best of circumstances. Surely there are smaller things he can do, such as with the tax code.

She took it in, and I could tell it really registered with her. But she held her personal emotions to get the broadcast on the air.
disease family fiction fit heroic novels politics romantic room teen tend war
We don't tend to write about disease in fiction - not just teen novels but all American novels - because it doesn't fit in with our idea of the heroic romantic epic. There is room only for sacrifice, heroism, war, politics and family struggle.
changed figuring happened lives people reasons seat teens
I'm a very introverted person. Nothing that's happened has changed that, but one of the reasons I write for teens is it's a real privilege to have a seat at the table in the lives of young people when they're figuring out what matters to them.
