• You burn the paper, but not the words. You silence the words, but not the thoughts. You kill the thoughts only if you kill the man. And you will find that his thoughts rise again in the minds of others - twice as strong as before.

• Mi hijo y yo descubrimos juntos los libros de Terry Pratchett, cuando él tenía unos once años. Cuando leía solo, se echaba a reír y me leía el pasaje en voz alta, ¡y yo hacía lo mismo con él! Los libros de Pratchett se convirtieron entonces en una fuente compartida de placer para nosotros, y lo siguen siendo hoy en día.

• Lo que más me gusta: Leer fuentes bien escritas que me transportan a otro mundo durante horas, ¡y poder llamar a eso trabajo! También, por supuesto, encontrar una joya de información que, o bien es exactamente lo que estaba buscando, o bien encaja perfectamente en la historia de alguna manera.

• A menudo tengo problemas para conciliar el sueño por la noche, así que cuando estoy tumbada en la cama pienso en historias. Ahí es donde pienso muchas cosas. También se me ocurren muchas ideas mientras leo; a veces, leer las historias de otros me hace pensar en una propia.

• Con el libro "Keeping Score" quería escribir un libro sobre la guerra de Corea, porque creo que es la guerra menos comprendida en el imaginario cultural estadounidense. Así que partí de la idea de que los estadounidenses no sabían mucho sobre la Guerra de Corea y que yo iba a intentar arreglar un poco esa situación.

• All my books take a long time to research. I spend several months researching before I start writing, and in the middle of writing I often have to stop and look up stuff. At my local library, I am one of the best customers! The research takes several months.

• My first publication was a haiku in a children's magazine when I was 9 years old. I received one dollar for it! I gave the check to my dad for Christmas, and he framed it and hung it over his desk.

• Each of my books has taken me a different length of time to write - eight months for Seesaw Girl, eight months for Shard, three years for When My Name Was Keoko! The publisher takes another year and a half to work on the book, so altogether each book can take up to three or four years to publish.
