Lisa Clancy: "I believe that if you have a good enough idea, and a sense of the Buffy tone, I can work with you and give you a shot. [But] telling me what a fan of the show you are is not enough. We're all fans. Watching every show is not enough to write the books."

John Passarella: "In the final analysis, I would have to say you need more day-to-day discipline to write the media tie-ins than freestanding novels.
