As you get older, you change certain things.

I tried being reasonable, I didn't like it.

I don't necessarily look for dark themes; they just seem to appear.

Great stories teach you something. That's one reason I haven't slipped into some sort of retirement: I always feel like I'm learning something new.

Let's not go and ruin it by thinking too much.

Things always look different from higher up.

I don't write. I usually look for material by other people. Sometimes I change things or adapt things but I don't write from scratch. I wish I had that ability.
