If You Can't Love Crudeness, How Can

I'm Not Proselytizing My Method. I Don't Believe That One Writer Should Tell Other Writers How To Write.

Imagining Something Is Better Than Remembering Something.

There's Nothing As Scary As The Future.

When I Was Still In Prep School - 14, 15 - I Started Keeping Notebooks, Journals. I Started Writing, Almost Like Landscape Drawing Or Life Drawing. I Never Kept A Diary, I Never Wrote About My Day And What Happened To Me, But I Described Things.

No Adult In My Family Would Ever Tell Me Anything About Who My Father Was. I Knew From An Older Cousin - Only Four Years Older Than I Am - Everything, Or What Little I Could Discover About Him.
