Ransom Riggs

When you're looking through bins of thousands of random, unsorted photos, every hundredth one or so will have some writing on it.

I try to imagine the scenes as I'm writing them as if I were watching them play like a film.

I think my background in film taught me that a great book adaptation is not always slavishly faithful to the source material.

I'm interested in the psychological exploration of human nature, and it just happens to come in the form of film-making.

It took me realizing that a broken heart has never actually killed anyone to find the courage to ask for what I want, in just about every situation. That was part of my own growing up.

If you compare NASA's annual budget to explore the heavens, that one year budget would fund NOAA's budget to explore the oceans for 1,600 years.
