It's Hard To Find Scripts

At Princeton I Wrote My Junior Paper On Virginia Woolf, And For My Senior Thesis I Wrote On Samuel Beckett. I Wrote Some About "between The Acts" And "mrs. Dalloway'' But Mostly About "to The Lighthouse." With Beckett I Focused, Perversely, On His Novels, "molloy," "malone Dies," And "the Unnamable." That's When I Decided I Should Never Write Again.

I'm Not Reading Currently Because I'm Getting Revisions Of A Novel. If I Read While I'm Writing I Will Unconsciously Plagiarize And Go To Jail.

I'm A Big Philip Roth Fan. I Think "american Pastoral" Is The Great American Novel Of The Past 30 To 40 Years. It's A Novel About What Happened In The 1960s, And I Think America Is Still Dealing With What Happened Then. It's Devastatingly Sad.

Approaching A Part Or Thinking About Taking A Part, I Never Think, 'is That Person Like Me?'

I Think [kids] Enjoy Reading, But It's A Different World Now. There Are A Lot Of Competitors For The Imaginative Attention.
