Writing A Story Is Kind Of Like

I Tried Once In My Life To Write A Novel. I Had Written Something Like 80 Pages Of It When My Laptop Got Stolen. When I Told People This, They Acted As If Something Tragic Had Happened, But I Kind Of Felt Relieved, Grateful To The Thief Who Saved Me From Another Year Of Something That Felt More Like Homework Than Fun.

I Think Living In Israel And Wanting To Change Reality Is The Best Prescription For Never-ending Writer's Block.

Rabbits Are Played. Nowadays It's All About The Turtles. Tell Them It's A Ninja, They'll Freak.

I Think That, In Israel, The Greatest Fear That People Have, And I Have It, Too, Is Fear Of Genocide.

Making Up Characters And Places And Plots, Unlike Fixing Your Plumbing Or Doing Dishes, Is Anything But Practical Or Rational. I Write What Needs To Be Written The Way That Seems Genuinely Right.
