#telling

I say that I can't make anything up. I think of myself as a collage artist. I'm cutting and pasting memories of my life. And I say, I have to live a life in order to tell a life. I would prefer to tell it because telling you're always in control, you're like God. ↗

I like the fact that kids are willing to be imaginative and go along with me when I'm telling strange tales. ↗

I've never met or spoken to David Lee Roth, yet it's rather ironic that even he's saying Eddie's lying about things. I'm saying he's not telling the truth, yet Eddie insists that the two of us are lying! You be the judge. ↗

I don't want to be 60 years old standing on stage telling some jokes. I want my life to mean something. ↗

I love graphic design. I love working with design, and I love storytelling, so I've been working on a children's book for a while, and I'd like to see that through. ↗

I was aware, however, that telling at any point in my career could adversely affect my future career. ↗
