I think everything in life is an evolution, isn't it?

I'm used to writing short stories, which is primarily what I like to read.

When I was young I was one of those kids that got pulled onstage at a Green Day concert. That was pretty awesome.

There's no coherent stylistic genre specific advice that I could provide.

There's a point when you're dating someone where you become aware of all the things you kind of thought you couldn't depart from. You kind of build all of these nostalgias and sort of antiquated memories in your mind, and when you're at the point during the breakup, you realise, "you know what, it actually takes a bit more than all this bullshit".

I love the necessary ambiguity of short stories - there simply isn't time to render every detail, so much of the story that orbits the literal prose must happen in the reader's imagination. Who knows, maybe the dwindling attention spans means a lucrative future for short story writers.

I think one of the dangers of humor is becoming seduced by it and sacrificing the story for a few laughs.
