Reposting this from Tumblr myself because otherwise people will be posting it tomorrow and other people will be asking if I said it.

Q:Some of your books make it seems like you believe in actual literal magic, do you? ()
A: I can write down a few words and make people thousands of miles away, whom I have never met and will never meet, laugh tears of joy and cry tears of true sorrow for people who do not exist and have never existed and never will exist. If that isn't actual literal magic I don't know what is.

Writing, art, and music are literal forms of magic(k).

This is my kind of magic. I'm still amazed that scripted audio I've made has made listeners laugh (and occasionally tear up) thousands of miles away and once even inspired fan art from Finland.
