I write about six to seven hours a day, five days a week, unless I'm traveling.

One thing I wish I'd been told in school is that my language is valid.

It's hard to be what you can't see.

I know the feeling of confusion and betrayal. I know the feeling of fearing for my life.

The people who know me do not ask me about the next book or how it's going. They ask, 'Jason, are you sleeping?' because they know my brain will not shut down.

'To Kill a Mockingbird' wasn't about me.

We've always been told to pretend as if we're not afraid.

It's hard to be what you can't see.

It's naive of adults to believe that young people aren't aware of what is going on in the world. The best thing we can do is confront that to help them navigate it. We can help them say, 'These things are happening. What does that mean for your life?'
