As For Me... I'm Fine. I Have

I Never Feel A Huge Need For Backstory In My Novels Or Films. Quick Sketches Are Often Enough. When You Encounter People In Life - Like A Chance Encounter At A Bar Or Wherever You Happen To Be - You Make These Incredibly Quick, Quite Intricate Decisions About People Based On Very Small Amounts Of Coded Information. We're Good At That. Long Descriptions Prior To Meeting Someone Or As You're Getting To Know Them Almost Don't Work.

Personally I Don't Think There's Any Real Intrinsic Difference Between Comic Books, Movies, Theatre, Novels. I Know There's Sure To Be Some Differences Of Some Sorts. I've Worked On Novels, Films, And Video Games, And In An Adaptation, I Guess One Of The Issues Is That I Have To Be In Love With The Thing I'm Adapting Before I Do It. So That Can Cause A Problem. You Can Be Too Scared Of It. You Could Be Too Reverential. But At The Same Time You Want To Try To Capture This Thing That You're Obsessed By. You're Fixated For A Reason. What's The Reason? You Try To Get Ahold Of It.

As For Me... I'm Fine. I Have Bad Dreams, But I Never Saw Mister Duck Again. I Play Video Games. I Smoke A Little Dope. I Got My Thousand-yard Stare. I Carry A Lot Of Scares. I Like The Way That Sounds. I Carry A Lot Of Scares.

Though I Walk Through The Valley Of Death I Will Fear No Evil, For I Am The Evilest Motherfucker In The Valley
