I'm a genre writer - I chose to be one, I ended up one, I still am one, and I'm not writing transgressive, genre-blurring fiction. I write 'core SF' - it may occasionally incorporate horror or noir tropes, but it's not pretending to be anything other than what it is.
I have spoken to Chinese leaders occasionally on human rights, but I've always done it in private.
Something's that written out is okay, but it's not always a clear indication of what a person means.
I always have a story in my head that needs to be written, or at least I think I do. But I usually can't find the time to write it.
I've always been a fan of Westerns, but my favorite kind of Westerns mostly were Sam Peckinpah's Westerns, and they mainly took place in the West that was changing.
We always have a take that's 'one for fun', so once you've got what you need, you can do what you like. Something does occasionally pop out of that tree. I'm always open to ideas.
I write by myself initially. That's the way I've always written, just working on pure thought by myself. Then I bring it to the table with whoever I'm collaborating with.
I write in English. My first album came out in Italy, and I toured and did gigs.
For me, life is writing and I can do it anywhere. It doesn't matter where I am. I listen. I write. I live.
