“If you are going to be a writer, you have to have self-belief, every writer gets…” — Anthony Horowitz

Throughout history, story telling was at the very beginning of life.

I feel very privileged to have reached so many kids because a life without stories, without the power of books, would be a very grey world, it's good to add colour.

You like to think with young adults that with your books, a little part of it has reached them and will stay with them. It is great to be part of an eight-year-old's world.

I do believe quite strongly in evil.
