I'm interested in stories that aren't getting told: it's where my interests lie.

I used to write at home, but it didn't ever occur to me to be a writer.

I used to hate flying. I would sit there, rigid, convinced that if I relaxed, the plane would drop out of the sky.

I read less of everything now. With only fond memories of others' work, it will be interesting to give my own journal writing a try now.

My feeling for reality TV isn't ironic, guilty, or apologetic. Reality TV is one of the few remaining modes of popular entertainment in which characterization is permitted as plot.

Another thing that freaks me out is time. Time is like a book. You have a beginning, a middle and an end. It's just a cycle.
