My Own Belief Is That People Can

Vampires Are Total Sexual Metaphors; There's Just No Way Around That.

I Need To Feel Like The Work I'm Doing Is Not Necessarily Important, But Meaningful, At Least To Me, Because Otherwise It Just Becomes A Day Job. It Just Becomes Factory Work And I Get Really Frustrated.

Ultimately, Physical Resemblance Isn't As Important As Whether This Person Can Bring This Character To Life In A Way That's Compelling And Makes Me Care About What Happens To Them.

I Will Say That The Environment I Grew Up In Was Not The Most Progressive.

I Think All Writers Are Armchair Psychologists To Some Degree Or Another, And I Think A Character's Sexuality Is Fascinating. It's A Great Way To Really Get At The Root Of Their Identity, Because It's Such A Personal Thing.
