My identity started developing through the songs I was writing.
The idea is that if we can put our own people through something almost as bad as what they might have to go through if they were taken captive, they will inoculate themselves.
I didn't really know what I was doing when I started. I just started writing songs. After two songs I just continued to explore it.
People may get tired of hearing from me, but I don't think I'll ever run out of things that I want to write about.
When I start writing songs and it turns into an overly belabored intellectual process, I just throw it out.
I started writing 'The Lobster Kings' the day after I sold my first novel, 'Touch.'
When my writing really started to take off was when I made a decision that I would write only what I wanted to write, and if 10 people wanted to hear it, that's fine.
The moment a man sets his thoughts down on paper, however secretly, he is in a sense writing for publication.
I still find trusting people quite hard. I've got a couple of mates that I do let in, but that's it. It's something I've got to sort out - I cut people off.
