Stine The next day, Greg is so large that he cannot even ride the car to school because he can't fit in the car. His parents believe this to have been caused by a food allergy and resolve to take him to the doctor later. R. L. Stine doctorsbelieveschool I have a cheat-sheet for each one of my characters about their personality, the way they look, etc. So there is no possible way that I could have writer's block. R. L. Stine blockwritingcheating Well, first you have to love writing. A lot of authors love having written. But I enjoy the actual writing. Beside that, I think the main reason I can be so prolific is the huge amount of planning I do before I start to write. I do a very complete, chapter-by-chapter outline of every book I write. When I sit down to write, I already know everything that's going to happen in the book. This means I've done all the important thinking, and I can relax and enjoy the writing. I could never write so many books if I didn't outline them first. R. L. Stine writingmeanbook I haven't written a young-adult book in years. I'm also doing six 'Goosebumps' books a year now. R. L. Stine adultsbookyears I got the chance to do things that I dreamed of when I was a kid: I got to travel around the world; I had my own 'Goosebumps' attraction at Disney World; I've been on TV and had three TV series.

Every detail has to be real or they won't buy it. R. L. Stine thinkknowfantasyreal I feel that good fantasy will always be in demand. I think children especially need literature that helps them escape from the real world, which is very scary to them right now. R. L. Stine feelgoodchildrenworld Kids think you just sit down and start writing. I always tell them you never do that. R. L. Stine downstartthinkyou People always ask, 'How do you write so many books?' And I say, I work a lot. I work six or seven days a week. R. L. Stine sayyouworkpeople Believe it or not, my introduction to scary literature was 'Pinocchio.' My mother read it to me every day before naptime when I was three or four. The original 'Pinocchio' is terrifying. R. L. Stine daymemotherbelieve When I was a kid, there were these great comic books called 'Tales From The Crypt' and 'The Vault of Horror.' They were gruesome. I discovered them in the barbershop and thought they were fabulous. R. L. Stine thoughtkidgreathorror
