Every American, I think, should be able to fill out their taxes on a postcard.
I write because writing is something that I have to do. And it doesn't matter whether people like it or not. When I write, I feel the pressure and anxiety that come with taking an empty piece of paper and trying to fill it with something from your own consciousness.

I had had a father whose shoes I could never fill, against whom I would never measure up; yet, I felt no pressure do so.
