Writing Helps Me Process Things That Are

People Make Such A Big Deal About How People In Bands Look, Especially If You're A Girl.

I'm Able To See Humor In A Lot Of Things.

I Could Make A Whole Album With No One Else Involved At All. It Would Be A Total, Unadulterated Expression Of Myself. Because Whenever You Have Others Playing On A Project, Their Influence Becomes A Part Of It.

It May Seem Strange, But The Most Grateful I've Ever Felt Was When I Was Held Up At Gunpoint. After I Handed Over My Wallet And The Mugger Ran Off Into The Woods, I Thought, 'thank You For Not Shooting Me.' I Was Overwhelmingly Glad To Be Alive And Unharmed.

I Finished 'beautiful Creature,' And I Felt Somewhat Unfulfilled. I Felt Like This Other Side Of Me Needed To Be Released. Some Of The Songs I Left Off The Album Weren't Intense Enough To Be What I Wanted. They Weren't Hard Enough.
