I'd made enough made money by the time I was 12 to never work again, so it's not about a big pay check with me.

I went to high school, which was a good thing because I hadn't interacted with many people my age, and I didn't really have friends. I had a million acquaintances and no friends.

I did a radio interview for a station in Connecticut or something, and it was the worst interview ever. It was all yes and no answers.

I'm not expecting the American literary community to welcome me with open arms. To them I'm just some schmuck kid who wrote some book.

I hope I'm remembered as the king of the world, the noble man who united all the nations of the earth. But that probably won't happen.

I am a collection of thoughts and memories and likes and dislikes. I am the things that have happened to me and the sum of everything I've ever done. I am the clothes I wear on my back. I am every place and every person and every object I have ever come across. I am a bag of bones stuck to a very large rock spinning a thousand miles an hour.

It's a place where I could do something on a weekly basis and see if I like it.
