It was like an exponential weed. And people treated me as if I was an established musician. I wasn't.

I was a very private person. All of a sudden, to see myself all over the internet and be like, "Oh god, do I want people to even hear this stuff?"

It was like an exponential weed. And people treated me as if I was an established musician. I wasn't.

I like to believe that my best hits border on felonious assault.

The fact that I fell into this seemed more like a stroke of good fortune than hard work. Not to say that I didn't work hard, but it wasn't like, "I'm going to be a musician."

I did a lot of writing when I was in college, and that's what I thought I wanted to do; saying that I wanted to be a writer seemed more reasonable than saying I wanted to be a musician.

It always felt like I had to be a realist.
