One thing I want to say: I don't like victim stories and I don't write them. ↗

Part of it has to do with this business of being approached in public. I have a distinctive look - it's partly the glasses I wear - and people seem to remember me once they've seen me. ↗

So far, at least, I haven't found a way to tell my kind of stories without making them both sad and funny. ↗

The funny thing is, strangers still seem to feel comfortable coming up to me and saying things, but now usually it's because they recognize me, and they say nice things. ↗

Usually the audience has no idea that the censored version of whatever movie they're watching isn't the original. ↗

Well, so far, at least, my own ideas always take priority over those of other writers. As long as the well doesn't run dry, I imagine this will be the case. ↗

When I want to show the kind of meanness people are capable of, to make it believable I find I have to tone it down. It's in real life that people are over the top. ↗

When I'm asked who my audience is, I say someone with an open mind, which is not a vacant one and sometimes a liberal mind is not the same thing as an open one. ↗
