Despite writing the most weird, mysterious, magical stories I can, when they succeed most, they are always - underneath all the strangeness, magic, and metaphor - about the thing(s) I deeply know, feel, and need to express. Our strongest writing comes from this place.

Not weird at all. I write in a literary style, and like many writers of horror who do, get trashed by those who just want pulpy gorefests. Thanks so much for adding it to your list!
