I love baseball. What I love about baseball is that you are always waiting.

If you can propose a memoir, even if you are eighteen years old - and what do you remember? What are you memeing? If you can propose a memoir, I believe someone will pay you to write it. And you will get a contract for nonfiction. And if it is about victimology in one way or another than you'll get more money. It's a sensation.

Baseball is a game where you are always waiting, and then when something happens it's like turning a kaleidoscope when you were a kid.

Never use 'submit' as a verb for sending work to magazine or book publishers; say 'offer,' and never, ever submit. Keep your knees unbent. Be brave.

The people who make reality are angry peasants with old cannon shells wired together, an anti-vehicle device.

I read a lot of poetry. I read some history.

I'm an amateur, so I read what's interesting to me.
