A Bruise Is A Lesson...

I Have Done A Lot Of Work In Hollywood Myself. I Worked In Television For Roughly 10 Years, From The Mid-'80s To Mid-'90s. And I Was On Staff At A Couple Of Shows. I Did Some Feature Films, Including Originals And Adaptations.

From Where I Sit, Battles Are Hard. I’ve Written My Share. Sometimes I Employ The Private’s Viewpoint, Very Up Close And Personal, Dropping The Reader Right Into The Middle Of The Carnage. That’s Vivid And Visceral, But Of Necessity Chaotic, And It Is Easy To Lose All Sense Of The Battle As A Whole. Sometimes I Go With The General’s Point Of View Instead, Looking Down From On High, Seeing Lines And Flanks And Reserves. That Gives A Great Sense Of The Tactics, Of How The Battle Is Won Or Lost, But Can Easily Slide Into Abstraction.

I Believe That Women Are Many Different Types Of People. There Are Brave Women, There Are Cowardly Women, There Are Altruistic Women, There Are Selfish Women. Most People Are A Combination Of The Same.

You Are The Blood Of The Dragon. You Can Make A Hat.
