Myth is very powerful and fiction is very powerful.

When I read any book, if it's really good I get lost in the writing whether it's fiction or non-fiction. I'm in the story not thinking about who wrote it.

Myth is very powerful and fiction is very powerful.

In terms of legend, people do have a need, but I think you can't have a legend without the work or the art that comes before it.

For me personally, I love art and artists of all mediums and we've seen madness is more often than not present in the greatest painters, poets, writers, and songwriters in history.

In college, I had a big fixation with Southern Gothic literature. Flannery O'Connor, I read every word she's ever written.

There's nothing I love more than a great truth-is-stranger-than-fiction story.
