I like the idea of being a working writer, not of saying that it's going to take me 30 years to write my magnum opus.
When I started, there was a phase where I wanted to be a cowboy star. I didn't want to do deep, serious parts.
I spent four of my five years at Stanford writing a novel I was unable to sell.
There would be times when I got so much work that I didn't have time to write. School interfered with writing more than writing with school.
I don't think I knew I would be a writer. I wanted to become a writer, and I tried to write.
Nobody writes like Nabokov; nobody ever will. What I would give to write one sentence like Vladimir!
I start writing at 7.30 A.M. and write till noon. I've never written a single word after 5.00 P.M.
You have to first be a writer and somebody who loves to write. If I couldn't travel, I would still write.
If you had of told me age 10 that in 19 years time I would be on a stage in Salford performing with Les Dennis in a sitcom I had written, I would have believed you.
