I'm not writing great literature. I'm writing commercial fiction for people to enjoy the stories and to like the characters.
I was writing and cartooning and writing short stories from grade school on.
Once writing has become your major vice and greatest pleasure, only death can stop it.
My greatest pleasure is still flying private. I spend between $300,000 to $500,000, depending on my year, on flying private.
I am also working on a couple of short stories for anthologies. This is new to me and I'm enjoying it.
Calling a show a 'guilty pleasure' is like saying 'I'm embarrassed to say I watch it but I can't stop.' That's not a compliment.
I find that short stories are almost like palate cleansers or brain cleansers.
I decided to write short stories because they got rejected quicker.
I've been writing fiction since I was a kid. From the age of 15 to 25, I probably wrote more than 50 short stories, one of which was published in 'The Paris Review' in 1989.
