“I don't want to write things that people don't want to read. I would have no pleasure in producing something that sold 600 copies but that was considered very wonderful. I would prefer to sell 20,000 copies because the readers loved it. When I write books I don't actually think about the market in that way. I just tell myself the story. I don't think I'm talking to a 10-year-old boy or a six-year-old girl. I just write on the level the story seems to call for.” PeopleThinkingWayWantWritingYearsBookStoriesSeemsGirlPleasureLevelsTalkingBoysWonderfulReaderSixSellsCopiesSix Year Olds Author:Emily Rodda
“Seven hearts the journey make. Seven ways the hearts will break. Bravest heart will carry on When sleep is death, and hope is gone.
