I think, honestly, that the word 'indie' is a false gimmick. 'Independent' used to mean a movie that was financed outside corporate Hollywood, but a lot of what gets called independent these days is totally produced within that system. And there's nothing wrong with that. ↗

Hollywood has the idea that movies have to be dumb. But especially movies for or about teenagers have to be really dumb! ↗

I've had nine of my books adapted to film, and almost all were enjoyable. I've been very lucky with Hollywood, and look forward to more movies being adapted. But I don't get involved in that process. I know nothing about making movies and I stay away from it and hope for the best. ↗

You can't find any true closeness in Hollywood, because everybody does the fake closeness so well. ↗
