Everybody Just Lets The Media Do Their

One Of My Weekend Hobbies Is To Go Look At Old Houses When There Are Open Houses Around Here. Just To Go Look At The Architecture. And You Can See How Many Houses Were Built Around 1977, The Year Where Everyone Said, "let's Put In These Aluminum Windows Instead Of Beautiful Hand-made Wood Ones."

When You See Somebody Who's Got A Complaining Personality, It Usually Means That They Had Some Vision Of What Things Could Be, And They're Constantly Disappointed By That. I Think That Would Be The Camp That I Would Fall Into - Constantly Horrified By The Things People Do.

There Are Certain Things In There That No One Else Would Recognize, Really. I See Details Of My Life That I Didn't Even Intend To Put In When I Was Doing The Work. For Example, I Noticed That Every Single Kid In The High School In The Death-ray Is Based On Somebody I Went To High School With.

It Keeps Me Moving When I See People Doing Stuff That I See As "my" Direction. I Think, "oh, It's Been Tainted. Now I've Got To Do Something New." There's Nothing Worse Than Working On Your Own Stuff And Thinking That Someone Else Is Following You Along.

Even If I Only Had 10 Readers, I'd Rather Do The Book For Them Than For A Million Readers Online.
