As A Kid, I Had A Background

I Think You Just Assume That Your Memory Is Just Sort Of A Video Playback Of Your Experience, But It's Nothing Like That At All. It's A Complete Refabrication Of An Event And A Lot Of It Is Made Up, Because You're Filling In Spaces.

Meet Me In Montauk.

Seriously, I Don't Consider Myself A Writer. I Don't Think I Have Writing Talent. But I Will Continue To Do It.

People Ask Me All The Time, "what Are Your Influences? Are You Trying To Do Beckett?" It's Like, "no, I'm Trying To Do Me." Whatever That Is. I Don't Know What That Is, But That's The Basis. I'm Trying To Be True And I'm Trying To Be Honest.

I Don't Have A Style. I Wouldn't Say I Have A Style As A Writer, Either. I Know People Have Said "this Is What He Does," But When I'm Writing, I Don't Think About That. I Don't Think About A Style.
