I think my fascination is less with genre figures than with writers in general.
Everything I write, I read aloud. It has to sound a certain way and look a certain way on page.
There are people who can sit down and write a song about any given subject, and they can do it really, really well.
I generally write a first draft that's pretty lean. Just get the story down.
I write about my region, the countryside in which I grew up.
I can't write about my greatest mistakes because I've slept with most of them.
I write songs about real things... The subject dictates the mood and it goes from there, really.
Comedy, at least the way I write comedy, is just drama with jokes.
Generally what I produce is new. Of course, they are often variations on the same subject.
