You've Got To Lie To Stay Halfway

I Don't Really Care About Plot; I Want To Have A Page-turner In A Different Kind Of Way.

I Distrust Thought. The Interior Life Is Highly Overrated. I Don't Like The Wispy And The Vague... Or Inductive Logic In Any Kind Of Writing. I'm Impatient With Writers Who Make Too Much Sense. The Better Things That I've Done Have Come To Me By Instinct.

Voice Comes To You Through A Spell, A Trance. The Best Voices Are Not You... They're A Little Away From You.
