Having judged a few competitions, it's clear that novelists are often the laziest short story writers.
A short story collection can be as exciting as a novel. It is a real complete experience, like when you listen to a real good recording, a Beatles record, and there are so many good songs.
You can't deny the experience of a store. It's fantastic if you're a global brand and you've got the power or the funds to support that bricks-and-mortar space, but we certainly weren't and aren't.
All of my problems are rather complicated - I need an entire novel to deal with them, not a short story or a movie. It's like a personal therapy.
A short story is the shortest distance between two points; a novel is the scenic route.
If you look at my last songs and first short stories, there is a real connection between them.
I come from very humble origins, so the last thing I would ever do is to look down my nose at people who can't afford to come here to my shop.
I love film and, particularly, shorts. You don't get to see them often, and they're a great little form, like a short story.
