There are very few of us, who reach my advanced age, who are still working in the business, as writers. As artists, people can hang out longer.

Unfortunately, there are writers whose only concern is how good they could make themselves look on a title.

I always wanted to fire rays out of my fingertips.

I became an art major, took every art class my school had to offer. In college, I majored in Advertising Art and Design.

I consider myself the luckiest man in the world. I have spent a lifetime doing what I love.

I've never had to work out of the arts. I've always either been a writer or an editor, or something where I've made my living from doing what I love. You can't get any better than that.

These days, it seems that if you're not already in place, you can't get there from here.
