J Pepper asked Michael Grant:

When you wrote Gone did you want people to learn something from it like some lesson his beneath the surface or was it just for fun?

Michael Grant Well, it's a bit of both. I never start out thinking, "I'm going to teach. . ." First, I'm not a teacher, I'm an entertainer. Job #1 is always, "Let's grab the reader and not let go." It's always about character and story. The lessons sort of happen along the way.

Nana Lees asked Michael Grant:

Sorry for my poor English, but I must say ... I hope to be a writer like you one day. Gone marked my life with several philosophies cuz that whole story became a kind of rehearsal for me. It reminded me of the book Blindness by José Saramago. Seeing the core of the human being was fantastic and the way I was changing sides and loving Caine... Aren't you ashamed to play with your readers like that?
