May we all emerge from winter with our strength renewed and any unwanted pieces left under the ice.

I wrote short stories when I was a teenager, but they weren't any good and I kinda knew it.

You always feel like your 18-year-old self in some sense. And that's what walking through New York on a June evening feels like - you feel like it's Friday and you're 17 years old.

Every place on earth has a frequency. It's not good or bad, it's just the way it is, and if you can attune yourself to that frequency, then you can find comfort in that.

It usually happens that I have multiple different projects going on at once, and one can be referencing the other.

[Robert] Aikman would write horror stories that weren't gore, they weren't slashers, and they weren't monster stories either. He called them ghost stories. The main thing about them was the vibe. It was really disquieting. He wanted to sketch the scene so that you could see it and know the characters and get a feel for the motion - and then ask yourself why and not get a final answer. Leave something that itches. I loved that!

Do every stupid thing that makes you feel alive.
