What I think of as style - and I've gotten to this over years of really thinking about it - is that style is the unconscious choices I make.
Part of me becomes the characters I'm writing about. I think readers feel like they are there, the way I am, as a result.
I try to choose the projects that I think are the most well-written and well-executed, and the rest of it is so beyond my control to be almost not worth thinking about at all.
I don't just want my books to be about the '30s and '40s. I want them to read as if they had been written then. I think of them as '40s novels, written in the conservative narrative past.
I don't think you can ever be ahead of your time with cynicism about that subject. No, I don't think it was ahead of its time. I think it was very much a product of its time.
I had to write about realistic circumstances. That's the way my brain works. And I think that gave me a sort of place in the field.
I think television is a big commitment, so it has to be something that you're really excited about and something that you want to potentially commit a lot of time to.
There are times when I think, 'I'm going to get this part. I know I am. I'm going to get this.' And then I don't, and I'm wondering, 'What happened? I went back five times!'
I think it's time that we have a women's show about the West. The concentration has been on the men and the Indians.
