I like Bret Easton Ellis' sense of humor. I feel like mine is sometimes similar to his. And how his characters sometimes seem really confused in a humorous manner. I like that. And I have that sometimes in my characters.

We have been sitting here all night bullshitting and we still don’t know what to do.

Life, people learned, was not easy. Life was not cake. Life was not a carrot cake.

I wouldn't think of my characters' moralities at all. And I think I identify fully with every main character I've written about and would say that I am them pretty much. So in terms of that I don't think I'm similar to Bret Easton Ellis .

Death is the end of the fear of death. [...] To avoid it we must not stop fearing it and so life is fear. Death is time because time allows us to move toward death which we fear at all times when alive. We move around and that is fear. Movement through space requires time. Without death there is no movement through space and no life and no fear. To be aware of death is to be alive is to fear is to move around in space and time toward death.

The distracting feeling of disbelief when you're finally doing something you've procrastinated on for notable amounts of time.

You were one person alive and your brain was encased in a skull. There were other people out there. It took effort to be connected.
