I try to write about real women, real people - in other words flawed characters.
I write about real people in disguise. If anything, my characters are toned down-the truth is much more bizarre.
I don't tend to write straight dramas where real life just impinges. But because I don't, when I do, it is very interesting to slap people in the face with just an absolute of life.
I've found I can plunge the characters into whatever absurd, awful situation, and readers will follow as long as the writer makes them seem like 'real people.'
Every reader knows about the feeling that characters in books seem more real than real people.
I've always wanted to do a movie that takes place in the 70's and was about rock and roll and getting high, like Dazed and Confused or Fast Times at Ridgemont High.
Facebook succeeded because it was about real people having a presence on the Internet. There were all these other social networking sites people had, but they were all about fictional people.
People talk about love and it seems like a cliche but it's a real thing - the more love we spread around the world the more it's going to change lives.
In 'The Interestings' I wanted to write about what happens to talent over time. In some people talent blooms, in others it falls away.
