I don't believe in a conspiracy to hide the existence of extraterrestrial life.

It seems unlikely that we're alone in the universe. But I'm pretty sure nobody's hiding any contact.

Every day I try to do breathing exercises, meditation, and yoga. These things sound awfully cliche, but they help me slow down and try to point to a truth.

When I grew up, I was in Manhattan the whole time. But my kids have been all over the world.

I had to work in one of the most beautiful ski resorts in the world for almost three weeks. Pity me.

I'm inspired as a writer by any place where I've lived for a significant amount of time that have memories, my past, and stories attached to them, and that's really New York and L.A. Any place where there's ghosts are inspiring.

I'm very proud of my Scottish blood.
