I've actually done a cover of 'Train in Vain' by The Clash with Viv Albertine - which was originally written about her.
The first writing I did was short short stories for a newspaper syndicate for which I was paid five dollars a piece on publication.
'Scalped' No. 1 was only the third comic script I'd ever written. I really learned a lot about writing on the fly with that series.
I don't think anybody ever makes any money buying and selling stock. They have to make money by keeping the stock.
Every newspaper editor says the heart of the paper is the reporter - which is true - except for the pay!
My name became a brand, and I'd love to say that was the plan from the start. But the only plan was to keep writing books. And I've stuck to that ever since.
I started my blog in 2002. That was pre-MySpace, pre-Facebook. That was back before newspapers realized they were going out of business. That was back when no one gave any credence to Internet writers.
My only phobia is untidiness. My hair has to be neatly kept; my shoes are always clean. Everything has to be in a straight line, in its place.
Unfortunately, I don't get to read nearly as much as I want because I'm always working on my own stuff, either the novels or newspaper columns.
