My medium is prose, not the novel.

Genre is a minimum security prison.

A book should either allow us to escape existence or teach us how to endure it.

The beauty of reality-based art - art underwritten by reality hunger - is that it's perfectly situated between life itself and (unattainable) "life as art".

Everything I write, I believe instinctively, is to some extent collage. Meaning, ultimately, is a matter of adjacent data.

Story seems to say that everything happens for a reason and I want to say, No, it doesn’t.

Anything processed by memory is fiction.
