• Mientras muchos de los medios de comunicación establecidos tienen pérdidas o quiebran, WikiLeaks ha sobrevivido a un gran conflicto con una superpotencia, incluido un bloqueo económico ilegal por parte de sus bancos y empresas de tarjetas de crédito y la detención de su editor. No tenemos deudas. No hemos tenido que despedir a personal. Nunca hemos perdido un juicio relacionado con nuestra publicación. Nunca nos han obligado a censurar. La adversidad nos ha endurecido.

• Es interesante porque la forma en la que J.J. corta (también estamos muy unidos con nuestros editores, así que es como si fuera el primer corte y luego él volviera y empezara a ajustar cosas, etc., y luego perdiera cosas cuando estaba demasiado ajustado). Entonces empiezas a verlo y a descubrir las actuaciones, no las actuaciones, sino los personajes, a quién eres capaz de seguir, qué viaje es más difícil de seguir, y haces que todo eso funcione.

• It is of course daunting to make ones public debut in a new format, particularly with a well loved character, and in a medium as much scrutinized by the web-o-sphere as comics... But I had the comfort of having great editors at IDW (Chris Ryall and Denton Tipton) and I knew whatever I wrote, Ilias would make me look good.

• Los autores de los artículos publicados y los editores de las revistas científicas pueden, por desgracia, ser lentos a la hora de aceptar las críticas, y es bueno que podamos utilizar los blogs para expresar críticas específicas a los artículos publicados y utilizar los medios sociales para difundir estas críticas.

• No fui a la escuela de moda. Llegué a New York en 1986 procedente de Kansas City y trabajaba como editora de accesorios para la revista Mademoiselle. Mientras trabajaba en Mademoiselle me di cuenta de que el mercado carecía de bolsos elegantes y sensatos, así que decidí crear los míos propios.

• When you are out of favor, so to speak, it's not just the reviewers. It's the editors, the publishers, they don't want you anymore, you're just gone and you've been written out of history as effectively as the old Stalinists would write someone else out, take their photograph out of a book.

• Comic scripts are full-on collaborations, not only with your artist, but your editors and colorists and letterers and PR folks, etc. Writing comics reminds me of my days as a journalist, working on a staff of fun, smart people.

• Los editores pueden ser estúpidos a veces. Simplemente ignoran la intención del autor. Siempre intento leer ediciones íntegras, se pierde mucho con las versiones cortadas de la literatura clásica, incluso las películas no tienen sentido cuando se editan demasiado. Me encantan los longueurs de un libro aunque parezcan inútiles porque puedes echar un vistazo a la mente del autor, a su alma creativa. ¿Qué le parecería a la gente que los editores vinieran y le dijeran a un artista: "Vaya, has dejado demasiado espacio alrededor de ese nenúfar, vamos a recortarlo un poco"? Monet se rasgaría las vestiduras.

• If anyone ever wonders why there's nothing coming from me, it's not my fault. I'm doing the work. No, I haven't deteriorated or gone insane. Suddenly, I just can't get anything into print. And apparently I'm not alone in this. There are people of very high standing, authors who are having problems. So I have been told. In my own case, the more disturbing element is the editor-in-chief who said to me, "I think this book is terrific. It ought to be in print. I can't publish it -- I've been told I mustn't." The indication is that I'm not writing what people want to read, but I never did.

• El editor estaba sentado en su sanctasanctórum, con el semblante arrugado por el cuidado, la mente en el fondo de los asuntos, los pies en lo alto de una silla, el brazo de la silla apoyado en un codo, la mano derecha sosteniendo la cabeza, los ojos en su vieja y polvorienta mesa, con diferentes documentos esparcidos.

• I was instructed long ago by a wise editor, "If you understand something you can explain it so that almost anyone can understand it. If you don't, you won't be able to understand your own explanation." That is why 90% of academic film theory is bullshit. Jargon is the last refuge of the scoundrel.

• My last point about getting started as a writer: do something first, good or bad, successful or not, and write it up before approaching an editor. The best introduction to an editor is your own written work, published or not. I traveled across Siberia on my own money before ever approaching an editor; I wrote my first book, Siberian Dawn, without knowing a single editor, with no idea of how to get it published. I had to risk my life on the Congo before selling my first magazine story. If the rebel spirit dwells within you, you won't wait for an invitation, you'll invade and take no hostages.
