When I write for kids, I have to make sure they know what can't happen. They have to know it's a fantasy. But when I write for adults, they have to think it's real. Every detail has to be real or they won't buy it.
I've only written one science-fiction book: 'Fahrenheit 451.' That book is a book based on real facts and my hatred of people who destroy books.
In fact, no one has ever really wanted to go on a date with me.
I really wish I knew what I was doing because I'd be writing hit songs every minute.
I have never ever Googled myself; in fact I think the Christian right prohibits such things.
'Taxi Driver' was the best thing that ever happened to me, and I didn't become a weirdo and squawk like a chicken.
The last thing I would have ever expected to happen to me in my life would be that, in fact, I would be accused of doing something wrong and maybe even something criminal.
I don't write all my stuff. Everybody always thinks that. But in just about every album I've ever had has been about 50-50 songs I've written or co-written and other people's songs.
The very first song I ever wrote was called 'I See Between The Trees,' when I was 9. It was really bad.
