You have to have an eye and a feeling for where things go. Writing visually, writing textually, writing sonically. Text is visual for me and images are textual. There is power in the way ideas are arranged, not just developed rhetorically. Form is everything.

For me, the eye and the word go together. Even when I was working in word documents, I was always obsessed with fonts, size, margins - the look of words on a page. The way something looks or sounds is also what it means.

I'm a discursive thinker, so quotation has played an active role in the structure and content of my books from the beginning.

At any moment I could give up, but I haven't because love for me is an indispensable structure for being.

In the digital economy, everything is archived, catalogued, readily available, and yet nothing really endures.

True lovers are as rare as true rebels.

The way something looks or sounds is also what it means. Words as visual and aural phenomena, which mainly poets, not critics and prose writers, tend to be obsessed with. I think maybe I'm more of a curator than I am a writer in the strict sense because I am interested in how everything on the page, in a space, works together.
