My Mother Was A Dancer,

I Have Dogs, And It's No Secret That I Find Reptiles Interesting, But The Thing About Reptiles Is That They Really Just Wanna Be Left Alone, And I Understand Them. It's, 'don't Pick Me Up, Stop Holding Me, Don't Look At Me, Just Leave Me Alone.' I Have To Admit, Sometimes I Feel Like That.

Passion Is Very Important To Me. If You Stop Enjoying Things, You've Got To Look At It, Because It Can Lead To All Kinds Of Depressing Scenarios.

All Of My Characters Have A Glint Of Madness.

I Remember Once Imagining What My Life Would Be Like, What I'd Be Like. I Pictured Having All These Qualities, Strong Positive Qualities That People Could Pick Up On From Across The Room. But As Time Passed, Few Became Qualities That I Actually Had. And All The Possibilities I Faced, And The Sorts Of People I Could Be, All Of Them Got Reduced Every Year To Fewer And Fewer Until Finally They Got Reduced To One - To Who I Am. And That's Who I Am.

As A Child, These Colourful Superheroes That Could Fly, Or Were Horrifying Like Ghost Rider And The Hulk, With This Tremendous Rage Or These Supernatural Powers, Provided An Escape For Me From My Mundane Existence, From My Lack Of Friends Or My Inability To Communicate Well With People. They Liberated Me.
